I was at the bookstore the other day and three books caught my eye because they all had Anishnawbe in the title, something not all that common. Blew my book budget for the month but I had to have them. ANISHINAUBAE THESAURUS by Basil H. Johnston, ANISHINAABE SYNDICATED: A VIEW FROM THE REZ, by Jim Northrup, and the last I had heard about, but didn’t have, THREE FIRES UNITY: THE ANISHNAABEG OF THE LAKE HURON BORDERLANDS, by Phil Bellfy. Good reading!

I'm interested in the book that James P. LaLone commented on "The Life and Times of a Chippewa Indian Medicine Woman" by Thomas Ciuthbert. The link posted seems to be out of date.  Checked Amazon and can't fine it listed there.  Any suggestions?

GREAT ELK 1756.

A Nuttewa (Nottowago or Nottoway) Indian who led many of his tribe to the Cherokees in 1756 Then resided with the Cherokees for over a year. Organized groups of Cherokees to go to the French in Canada.


The link to the website:

 


According to the book Shawnee Heritage I by Noel Schutz and Don Greene, Great Elk, aka Moose, Big Deer, Big Elk, was 6’6” tall and big. He was born in Pennsylvania around 1730 and died in Ohio around 1795. His community was called the Chalakatha. He was living among the Cherokee in 1756/1757 for about a year. He convinced some of them to go to Canada to support the French in their war with the British. He married a Nottoway woman around 1750. he was a great warrior being part of many raiding parties throughout VA/OH/KY and elsewhere.


Tuscarora-Nottaway of Grand River Reserve, Canada. These are the main communities and each has something to provide to the whole of the tribe to validate tribal coheasion on a continuous basis. Together, the state and the federal cannot deny that the Nottaway are a tribe, however, individually, the communities fail to meet all the requirements, except the Tuscarora-Nottaway of Grand River Reserve, Canada.
