Because there are no Susquehannock Indians. They were all slaughtered by the Paxton brothers.
Who are the Paxton brothers....the murderers of the Susquehannock Indians in lancaster were the Paxtang Boys.

About 1760 John Zug and his wife went with her father to the beaver valley, now part of Dauphin Co. Pa., near beaver station where he had taken up a large tract of land, and where he promised to give them a farm to clean of brush and timber; but in 1762 the Tuscarora Indians from the valley up the river became so dangerous by murder, and arson, and robbery that by fall they decided to go back to White Oak until life became safe again. So in that fall one morning they started on foot with their two children each carrying one. After going a little way they saw a man lying in a buckwheat patch dead. He shouldered the man, who was still warm, and took him to the next house.
Things in Paxtang and Beaver Valley grew worse instead of better, and in 1763 a number of young and middle-aged men organized themselves into a company, and assumed the name, "Paxtang Boys" for the purpose of revenge. But the Indians learned of it, and went to an Indian town in Manor Twp., about 6 miles South west of Lancaster, whence the Paxtang Boys trailed them, but the marauders got wind of their coming and left. The Indians misdirected the gang, who essayed to follow, so to give the fugitives time to escape. When the neighbors learned of the trick the Indians were placed in the Lancaster Workhouse for their protection, but the Paxtang Boys came back, burned the Indian village, broke into the workhouse, and killed every Indian.
