Oil Springs Reservation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oil Springs Reservation is an Indian reservation of the Seneca tribe located in New York, USA. As of the 2000 census, the Indian reservation had a total population of 11, none of whom are Native American. It is divided between two counties: Cattaraugus County and Allegany County.

The reservation is northwest of the Village of Cuba, New York.

The petroleum-tainted water of the spring was used for the natives medicinally and was known to Jesuit missionaries as early as the 17th century.
