of Grand River, L. Nipissing, Michili- 

 mackinac, Detroit, and Saginaw. Accord- 

 ing to ]\Iorgan the names of the Ottawa 

 gentes are unknown, but Cliauvignerie 

 in 1736 mentioned the bear, otter, gray 

 squirrel, and black squirrel as the totems 

 of different bands of the tribe. Accord- 

 ing to Charlevoix the Ottawa signed 

 with a hare the provisional treaty con- 

 cluded at Montreal in 1700. At the 

 great conference on the Maumee in 1 793 

 they signed with the otter totem. In 

 Tanner's Narrative is given a list of 18 

 totems among the Ottawa and Chippewa, 

 but there is nothing to indicate which are 

 Ottawa and which Chippewa. 



The Ottawa entered into numerous 

 treaties with the United States, as fol- 

 lows: Ft Mcintosh, Jan. 21, 1785; FtHar- 

 mar, Ohio, Jan. 9, 1789; Greenville, Ohio, 

 Aug. 3, 1795; Ft Industry, July 4, 1805; 

 Detroit, Mich., Nov. 17, 1807; Browns- 

 town, ]Mich., Nov. 25, 1808; Greenville, 

 Ohio, July 22, 1814; Spring Wells, Mich., 

 Sept. 8, 1815; St Louis, Mo., Aug. 24, 

 1816; on the INIiami, Ohio, Sept. 29, 1817; 

 St Mary's, Ohio, Sept. 17, 1818; L'Arbre 

 Crocheand Michilimackinac, Mich. , July 

 6, 1820; Chicago, 111., Aug. 29, 1821; 

 Prairie du Chien, Wis., Aug. 19, 1825; 

 Green Bav, Wis., Aug. 25, 1828; Prairie 

 du Chien" Wis., July 29, 1829; Miami 

 Bav, Ohio, Aug. 30, 1831; INIaumee, Ohio, 

 Feb. 18, 1833; Chicago, 111 ,Sept. 26, 1833; 

 AVashington, D. C, Mar. 28, 1836; Council 

 Bluffs, Iowa, June 5 and 17, 1846; Detroit, 

 Mich., July 31, 1855, and Washington, 

 D. C, June 24, 1862. 



Tlie population of the different Ottawa 

 groups is not known with certainty. In 

 1906 the Chippewa and Ottawa on Mani- 

 toulin and Cockburn ids., Canada, were 

 1,497, of whom about half were Ottawa; 

 there were 197 Ottawa under the Sen- 

 eca School, Okla., and in Michigan 

 5,587 scattered Chippewa and Ottawa in 

 1900, of whom about two-thirds are Otta- 

 wa. The total is therefore about 4,700. 



The following are or were Ottawa 

 villages: Aegakotcheising, Anamiewati- 

 gong, Apontigoumy, Machonee, Manistee, 

 Menawzhetaunaung, Meshkemau, Mich- 

 ilimackinac, Middle Village, Obidgewong 

 (mixed) , Oquanoxa, Roche cle Banif, Saint 

 Simon ( mission ) , Shabawy wyagun, Tush- 

 tiuegan, Waganakisi, Walpole Island, 

 Waugau, Wolf Rapids.
