The Brothertown Indians (also Brotherton), located in Wisconsin, are a Native American tribe formed in the late 18th century from communities so-called "praying Indians" (or Moravian Indians), descended from Christianized Pequot, Narragansett, Montauk, Tunxis, Niantic, Charlestown, Wampanoag, and Mohegan (Algonquian-speaking) tribes of southern New England and eastern Long Island, New York. In the 1780s after the American Revolutionary War, they migrated from New England into New York state, where they accepted land from the Iroquois Oneida Nation in Oneida County.
