Gah-hon-no-neh

Seneca/ Wolf Clan

• Family of Elizabeth Johnson

Gahonnoneh was born before 1720. She was the daughter of Alpha Wolf Mother. She was the sister of Guyasuta and Wolf Mother.

"He [Cornplanter] was the son of a Seneca mother, Aliquipiso, and a Dutch father, an Albany fur trader named Johannes “John” Abeel (last name sometimes Gaelicized to O’Bail). His Seneca name, Gaiänt’wakê (often spelled Gyantwachia), means “the planter,” and another variation, Kaintwakon, means “by what one plants.” He was born at Canawaugus (now in the Town of Caledonia) on the Genesee River in present-day New York State around 1750 and was raised by his mother with the Seneca. As the Seneca and other Iroquois nations had a matrilineal system of kinship, Cornplanter was considered to be born into his mother’s clan and gained his status from them." https://www.revwartalk.com/cornplanter/
