Best Answer

The American government had absolutely no dealings with the Powhatan tribes and never relocated them. Warfare with the English colonies in the !7th century saw the Powhatans practically destroyed; by the time the Americans gained independence the remaining Powhatans had already become mixed with other native groups, white people and African Americans.

Around 8 different groups descended from the Powhatan tribes still live today in Virginia and New Jersey but the language, culture and lifestyle has been almost completely lost.
