Waccamaw Siouan
Waccamaw Siouan Indians are one of eight state-recognized Native American tribal nations in North Carolina, also known as the "People of the Fallen Star".〔 Formerly Siouan-speaking, they are located predominantly in the southeastern North Carolina counties of Bladen and Columbus. They adopted this name in 1948. Their communities are St. James, Buckhead, and Council, with the Waccamaw Siouan tribal homeland situated on the edge of Green Swamp about 37 miles from Wilmington, North Carolina, seven miles from Lake Waccamaw, and four miles north of Bolton, North Carolina.〔See Sylvia Pate and Leslie S. Stewart, ''Economic Development Assessment for the Waccamaw Siouan Tribe'' (Pembroke, NC: University of North Carolina, 2003), p.5; and Thomas E. Ross, ''American Indians in North Carolina: Geographic Interpretations'' (Southern Pines, N.C.: Karo Hollow Press, 1999), pp. 137-140.〕 The names of these people follows: Jacobs, Freeman,Graham, Blanks, Young, Baldwin,Spaulding, and Moore.
==Demographics==
According to the 2010 Census, the total Waccamaw Siouan Native American population in Colombus and Bladen counties was 1,896 (1,025 and 331, respectively). This represents 2.7% of the total combined Native American population of North Carolina. Current tribal enrollment consists of 2,594 members.〔U.S. Bureau of the Census, ''2000 Census of Population, Social and Economic Characteristics: North Carolina'' (Washington, DC: Government Printing Office, 2003); and Pate and Ste "Coverage Differences in the Census of a Rural Minority Community in North Carolina: the Little Branch area of the Waccamaw Sioux Tribe," ''Final Report-1990 Decennial Census report: Ethnographic Evaluation of the 1990 Decennial Census Report'' (Washington, DC: Center for Survey Methods Research, Bureau of the Census, 1992); and Ross, ''American Indians in North Carolina'', p. 140.〕
Between 1980 and 2000, the two-county area experienced a small overall population increase of 6.7% compared with a 37% rate of growth for North Carolina. The growth in the two counties was mostly in the Native American and Hispanic populations—61% and 295%, respectively. There was also a 7% increase in the black population, and a 0.6% decrease in the white population.〔Pate and Stewart, ''Economic Development Assessment'', p.9.〕
