The location of Erie is in Southern shore of Lake Erie beginning near Buffalo, New York and then west to the vicinity of Sandusky, Ohio. Their homeland may also have extended far inland to include large parts of the upper Ohio River Valley and its branches in northern Ohio, western Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Erie is an industrial city on the shore of lake Erie in the northwestern corner of the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. Erie is the state's fourth-largest city with a population of 104,000.Erie's Metropolitan Area consists of 281,000 residents. Erie is a short form of the Iroquian word "Erielhonan" meaning literally "long tail"" and referring to the panther . Hence their French name was Nation du Chat. Their other Iroquoian names - Awenrehronon and Rhilerrhonon - carry the same meaning, although the Huron muddied the situation by using Yenresh for both the Erie and Neutrals. Other names which seem to have been used for the Erie were: Atirhagenret, Chat Gaquagaono, Kahqua now I just told you what the location of Erie. I also told you about the population of Erie. One more thing I was glad that I wanted to tell you about the names of Erie.

What is the southern most point in Canada?

The most southerly part of Canada is Middle Island. It is located in Lake Erie, just 100 meters from the Canada-US Border, between Pelee Island, Canada, and Sandusky, USA. Pelee Island is the southernmost inhabited part of Canada, and Point Pelee is the southernmost part of mainland Canada. There is archaeological evidence of aboriginal occupation of Middle Island dating back 2,500 years. It played a small role in the Underground Railroad, and was prominent as a "rum-running" haven during Prohibition. Middle Island is uninhabited, and is not open to visitors. It was purchased by the Nature Conservancy of Canada in 1999 from private American owners and is now part of Canada's Point Pelee National Park.
