I’ve done years of research on the Native People of my area and I’m always forgetting how the ancient placenames relate to today’s placenames. So many locations have changed names over the years and older texts use the oldest names.

So, I built a little database for my use, but anyone can use it and add to it.
I just built it yesterday so there isn’t a lot of data in it yet:

It is a cool idea. I see you have a lot of Ma. Algonquin speaking tribes listed. I think you'll find this link useful as well. Scroll down and you will see an alphabetical index with hundreds of placenames with suggested translations...
