There is also an Indian Shaker Church, not related to the Eastern Shakers. This church incorporates both native and Christian beliefs and originated over a century ago in the Pacific Northwest. It still survives today, with active churches found in The Dalles, Oregon and Smith River, California and several other places.
The Shaker Church is based on the teaching of John Slocum, an Indian from Puget Sound who died, had a vision, and came back to life. The Church has few rules or precise beliefs. The ceremonies include hand bell ringing and curing, which is often done by shaking of hands over the afflicted person. There is a book about the Indian Shakers entitled Indian Shakers, a Messianic Cult of the Pacific Northwest by H.D. Barnett, but the book is out of print and rather hard to find.
