About Mrs. Elizabeth Henry

Mrs. Elizabeth Henry (born George) is #518 on the 1907 Wooster Roll. Her traditional name is reported by Wooster as "Gikai" but no translation is offered in the Wooster Roll. In modern records her name is recorded as "Ke-kuhi" which may be a different spellling of the same name. See page 10 of https://www.attorneygeneral.jus.gov.on.ca/inquiries/ipperwash/polic... . Both Elizabeth's traditional sprit name (Gikai) and her given Potawatomi name (Ke-kuhi) require scrutiny by those with expertise in the Anishinaabemowin language, Potawatomi culture and the history of Kettle Point, Ontario. On the 1907 Wooster Roll the residence of Mrs. Elizabeth Henry is reported as Kettle Point Reservation. For a modern perspective about the history of this community see http://www.kspcommunityculture.ca/ .

In 1907 when Mrs. Elizabeth Henry was age 80 she was living at Kettle Point Reservation, Ontario where she held full rights in Canada. An alternate birthdate of 1834 (not 1827) is provided at www.myheritage.com/names
