Best Answer

Due to ethnic cleansing & forced removal the Lenape today are spread across the United States and Canada, with concentrations along their Trail of Tears from their Ehenta Wehikiankw or "Old Homeland" all the way to Oklahoma. Many jumped off the trail of tears to settle along the way. Some were also rescued by the Moravians of Bethlehem, Pa and taken to Ontario Canada where there is today a "Delaware" reservation at Moraviantown. But there are actually 5 dialects of the original Lenape, two having been documented toward Oregon! The others migrated to NY, PA, DE & NJ and then, of course, out to OK.
