With researching information on the Lumbee tribe and other Native American tribes I have come across various websites that I have found to be very helpful in my search.
www.narf.org/pubs/misc/faqs.htm
This website is a very good site to go to for basic questions about Native Americans. Such as What are Native Americans, What is a federally recognized tribe and what are the benefits? It answers generalized questions on Native Americans which could be a site to visit if one is not familiar with the Native American community.

LRDA (Lumbee Regional Development Association) is a website that discusses the history of the Lumbee and gives a list of resources that the Lumbee tribe have available if they need any kind of assistance.
