\:{:\"-:\"[ Ke-che-go-se-kot [V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #I]     

[V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #I (after Kohl, p. 147): "the first ancestor mentioned by Mon-go-sid, was born in the early 1500's, probably near the St. Lawrence River in what is now Quebec, Canada.  Between 1300 and 1400 the Chippewa were near the Atlantic Ocean in the present New England states and on both sides of the International boundary between the United States and Canada.  By around 1400 they were being forced by the eastern tribes, west along the St. Lawrence River toward the Great Lakes.

     "Kohl says of the name Gi-ji-gos-se-kot, "With the name of the last, Loon-foot's genealogical tree was lost in the clouds...of this name Loon-foot gave me the extraordinary explanation, 'le ciel qui a peur de l'homme.' He must have been a species of Titan.  I cannot give the derivation of the word, but I find in it certainly, traces of Gigjig = heaven and agoski = fear."

[V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #1 (after Kohl, p. 147): ..."male, born around 1550, son of \;{:\"-:\"[ Gi-ji-gos-se-kot.  His name is given by Kohl in French as "l'homme a la tete rouge."  This seems to be a correct translation as a man who had over his head a red animal skin.  At this period the Chippewa were roaming over a large section of Eastern Canada and nearing the Great Lakes.

[V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #2 (after Kohl, p. 147): "... son of /;-\',(>;<,\,( Misk-wan-di-ba-gan.  He was probably born north of the Great Lakes in the present Quebec or Ontario. The Chippewa were supposedly into the Northern Peninsula of Michigan and around Lake Huron at this time, as well as in Canada.  During his lifetime Mi-ti-gua-kosh could have encountered the French who were settling into Quebec.

     "The Chippewa and the Ottawa had early contact with the French.  The Chippewa in particular traded furs for guns and other French goods.  They then acted as traders with the western tribes, exchanging the French goods for furs.

     "The name Mi-ti-gua-kosh was translated by Kohl as 'le bec du bois.'  The English translation would be 'a stick of wood'."

[V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #3 (after Kohl, p. 147): son of /;>;\',\"} Mi-ti-gua-kosh.  Around 1600 the Chippewa were still around Lake Huron but were being driven north by the Hurons and Wyandottes.  During the period of 1600 to 1625 the Chippewa were in northern Michigan and around Sault Ste. Marie.  Mackinac Island was an Algonquian fishing center and had a fairly permanent population.

     "In Tanguay's Canadian Genealogy there are numerous entries from 1625 on, of marriages between Frenchmen and women with recognizable Chippewa names, showing the early contact the Chippewa had with the French.

     "The French translation of Scha-wan-a-gi-jik is 'le ciel du sud' and the English is 'southern sky'."

',{;\; Wajki (.1640) [V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #4]             

':}\; Waish-key (.1640) [V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #4]          

[V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #4 (after Kohl, p. 147 ff)]: "son of },',^,\;{;[ Scha-wa-na-gi-jik.  Kohl says 'I received from Loon-foot no explanation of this word, but Wajki means so much as 'the young man' or `the beginner.''  There were several Chiefs by this name in later years, probably descendants of this man.

     "In 1668 the French sponsored a gathering of Algonquins (including Chippewas) at Che-goi-me-gon Bay (now Chequamegon Bay) near La Pointe, Wisconsin, at the instigation of the French priests.  The Chippewa were described as being intruders in the Sioux country although the meeting seems to have been all Algonquin and the preaching in that tongue.  In 1670 the Sioux drove the Algonquins out of the Che-goi-me-gon Bay area and reclaimed it as their own.

     "Minnesota Historical Collections: 'A deputation of the Indians, around Mackinaw arrived at Montreal, in the summer of 1694, and went back with a number of traders, about the end of September.  The convoy was commanded by Cadillac, Sieur Delamothe, captain of the marines, on his way to relieve Louvigny, Sieur de.

     "'Le Sueur, Sieur arrived at Montreal, on the 15th of July 1695, with five Frenchmen, and a party of Lake Superior Indians, as well as a Sious Indian and squaw, the first who ever visited Montreal.

     "'The Indians were much impressed, by witnessing the army, under Cresafi, Chevalier distinguished by ancestry and bravery, march through the streets on their way to Lake Ontario.  On the 18th of July they were formally received by Frontenac, Governor, in the presence of the principal persons of the town. {;(\",<: Chingouabe, chief of the Sauteurs (Ojibways) said: 'That he was come to pay his respects to Onontio, in the name of the young warriors of Point Cagouamigon, and to thank him for having given them some Frenchmen to dwell with them: and to testify their sorrow for one Jobin, a Frenchman who was killed at a feast.  It occurred accidentally not maliciously.  We came to ask a favor of you.  We are allies of the Sciou.  Some Outagamis or Mascoutens have been killed.  The Sciou came to mourn with us.  Let us act, father, and take revenge.  LeSueur alone, who is acquainted with the language of the one and the other, can serve us.  We ask that he return with us."

     "'After the council was over, the Indians passed several days in trading their furs, and wondering at the ways of the white man, but on the 29th, they were called together again, and Frontenac replied to the Ojibway chief:'

     Frontenac asked the Ojibway not to meddle in the affairs of the Sciou.

     "'After the distribution of presents, Chingouabe said: 'Father! it is not the same with us, as with you.  When you command, all the French obey you and go to war.  But I shall not be heeded, and obeyed by my nation in like manner.  Therefore I cannot answer, except for myself and those immediately allied or related to me.  Nevertheless I shall communicate your pleasure to all the Sauteurs, and in order that you may be satisfied of what I say, I will invite the French who are in my village to be witnesses of what I shall tell my people in your behalf.'

     "'Two days after this the Ojibways left for Lake Superior.'

     "Chief Chingouabe (Shing-wah-bay meaning Deaf Man) is almost certainly an ancestor of this family.  The name };(',<: Shing-wah-bay is found repeatedly in this family (see #22) and not in any other family.

',{,',>,{\"- Wa-ja-wa-daj-kos (.1670) [V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #5]    

[V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #5 (after Kohl, p. 147)]: "son of ',{;\; Wajki.  His name in French is given as a 'cause qu'il le peau-bien rouge.'  The translation I was given is 'One having a a red skin or wearing a very red skin.'

     "By around 1700 the Chippewa seem to have occupied, at least in part, the area around Northern Lake Michigan and Lake Superior.  Their first settlement at La Pointe (Madeleine Island) was not until 1726, according to some of the old Chiefs.  Certainly they were hunting and raiding into Minnesota by this time.

     "The Chippewa and the Sioux were allies and trading partners.  The Chippewa were allowed to hunt and trap on the Sious held lands.  The Sioux still had little contact with the French, relying on the Chippewa as middle men to handle their furs in exchange for French goods.

father of: /,{;',\,( Matchi-wai-jan (.1700) [V.R. #6]


/,{;',\,( Matchi-wai-jan (.1700) [V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #6]  

[V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #6 (after Kohl, p. 147)]: "son of ',{,',>,{\"- Wa-ja-wa-daj-kos.  The translation of this name is given as 'l'homme qui porte une grande peu -- the Great Skin.'  He was supposed to have been a mighty hunter.

    "In 1734 it was reported that the Loon Clan was around the Nipigon River on the north shore of Lake Superior.  Also around this period they are supposed to have driven the Hurons and Wyandottes out of northern Michigan and reclaimed land they had previously called their own.

    ",(>:\';"- Au-daig-we-oss, Chief meaning Crow's Flesh, was born around 1700 and was the Head Chief of the Loon Family.  He supplanted ',<,{,[ Waub-uj-e-jauk meaning White Crane, as first chief of the Chippewa.  He and Matchi-wai-jan were contemporaries.  It is interesting to note that Au-daig-we-oss's son was \:{:':}\,( Ke-che-waish-kung (Great Buffalo), who was chief at La Pointe. Descendants of Great Buffalo are related to this family.

    "After 1670 the Chippewa were the largest and most important tribe on Lake Superior.  The other tribes had been decimated by the Iroquois but the Chippewa were far enough removed to have escaped their raids.  The Sioux had also fought with most other tribes around them but had remained allies of the Chippewa.  It was probably in Matchi-wai-jan's time that something occurred to set the two against each other.  The Chippewa were hunting and trapping in Wisconsin and Minnesota on lands still held by the Sioux but by 1700 the Sioux had started their retreat west and fighting between the two was increasing.

father of: <;,-', Bi-aus-wa (.1730) [V.R. #7]


<;,-', Bi-aus-wa (.1720 - #1825) [V.R. Broken Tooth Genealogy, #7] 

[V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #7 (after Kohl, p. 147)]: son of /,{;',{,( Matchi-wai-jan (.1700), probably born at La Pointe, Wisconsin.

   "The French translation of his name is given as 'l'homme qui fait secher,' and the English as 'the man who was dry or needed a drink of water.'  From the Tales of the Four Lakes, Bi-aus-wah was 'generally accepted as the leader of the first successful attacks on Sandy Lake.  He was the principal Chief of the Sandy Lake village during its first years as capital of the Ojibway Nation.  Bi-aus-wa was even better known, however, for his civil leadership than as a war chief.'  Kohl writes 'Loonfoot said that his grandfather had been a great 'jossakid' (magician).  Once his squaw had been quite paralyzed, nearly dead, but his grand father had brought her to life with his breath (en soufflant).' There were several chiefs named Bi-aus-wa ad in some of the histories they have become confused.

   "It was during Bi-aus-wah's time that the fighting between the Chippewa and the Sioux was at its most intense.  The Sioux and the Chippewa had been allies, at least to some extent, until about 1730.  The Sioux occupied the northern part of Minnesota and the Dakotas.  The Chippewa were closer to the French and English fur traders and acted as middle men.  They traded for guns, amunition, metal pots and pans, etc.  then traded with the Sioux for furs. [Add info.]  Until after 1736 the Chippewa did not have a foothold west of Lake Superior.  From the Tales of Four Lakes, \:{:',<;}:}; Ke-chi-wa-bi-she-shi meaning 'Great Marten', 'who was killed near Elk River was said to have fought in nearly 100 battles and been wounded in many of them.  He was Bi-aus-wah's most important war chief and lead every major campaign against the Sioux after the Ojibway had settled in the Northern lake region of Minnesota.'

   "It has been written that Bi-aus-wah had only one son when he died, and that he substituted himself for his son and was burned at the stake by the Fox Indians.  However I have found ample evidence that the children listed below were his children.  They undoubtedly had different mothers.  It was almost unheard of in those days for a Chippewa man, particularly a Chief, to have only one wife.  They usually fathered fifteen or more children although many died in childhood.

   "Chippewa families tend to be interrelated.  It was a common custom for Chiefs to marry daughters of other Chiefs.  Another common practice was the 'Indian ideal marriage' of first cousins, children of a brother and sister."

Powell Genealogies, family #58:head

[Powell 10/0275]: "The old chief of the Sandy Lake band was made chief by the English. ... He was called Broken Tooth by the English.  He came from Canada."

[V.R., Broken Tooth Genealogy, #8]: "(Schoolcraft said that he died in 1822 but Kah-dah-wah-be-day signed a treaty in 1825, see below), son of <;,-', Bi-aus-wa (.1720 - #1825).  There are many variations in the spelling of his name.  In 1825 \,>,',<:>, Kau-tau-wau-beta, or Broken Tooth signed the treaty at Prairie du Chien in the then Territory of Michigan.  His son \,';(>" Caw-win-dow (\,^,(>,',':(-" Kah-nun-dah-wah-wen-zo) also signed.  In 1837 at St. Peters in the Territory of Wisconsin (now Minnesota) only Ka-nan-da-wa-win-zo, or Le Brocheau, signed.  As Chief of the Sandy Lake band Kah-dah-wah-be-day was the oldest Chief on the upper Mississippi in 1828.  He was called Breche or Brechedent by the French.

  "From the Wisconsin Historical Collection, Vol. 7, Page 196-7: 'The Sandy Lake tribe of Indians is the second in size.  It has eighty-five men, two hundred and forthy-three women and children, besides thirty-five half breeds.  They are divided into three parties, one resides about half way from Sandy Lake to Leech Lake, at a place called Pac-au-gum-aw, on a small lake through which the Mississippi runs, and near the boundary between these and the Leech Lake Indians.  These Indians hunt north to Vermillion Lake, and the head waters of the Fond du Lac River, and on which the Northwest Company has an establishment; west to Pauc-qua-gun-aw, above mentioned; east to the Fond du Lac River and down it to the Portage de la Prairie, south to the borders of the Sioux country, or near Elk river which falls into the Mississippi.'  In 1805 Pike, Zebulon found the Chippewa at the Sandy, Little Rock, Leech and Red lakes and on the Platte, Little Elk, Swan and Crow Wing rivers.  He estimated the population at 3,000.

  "From the Michigan Pioneer and Historical Collections, Vol. 37, P. 526: 'A great many Savages came, among whom were Katawabitais and /,(\"-;[ Mangozeit.'  A footnote at the bottom of the page reads '\,>,',<,>, Katawabata, or Parted Teeth.  Thirty-seven years afterwards, namely in 1822, this man visited me at Sault St. Marie, being then a man verging towards seventy.  He told me that he was a boy at the time of the taking of old Mackinac, 1763.  The French, he said, wished him to take up the war club, but he refused.  The English afterwards thanked him for this, and requested him to raise the tomahawk in their favor, but he declined.  The Americans afterwards thanked him for this, nor did they ask him to go to war.  They continually advised to peace, and he adds, I am a friend of peace.  Though not in the lineal line of Chiefs of Sandy Lake, he was regarded as a civil chief and counsellor: and was respected both by the Indians and the traders.  He died at Sandy Lake in 1822.'  Schoolcraft, III, p. 361, note.
