Oukah-Ulah was one of the seven Cherokee chiefs who traveled to London in 1730 with Sir Alexander Cuming. His ancestry is unknown as is any wife or descendants. His place of birth and death are also unknown. There is no reason to believe that he was the brother of Moytoy of Tellico.

This man was one of the seven chiefs and warriors who went to London with Sir Alexander Cuming in 1730. Cuming’s account of the selection of the travelers says, “Sir Alexander chose as Evidence of the Truth of what had happened, the head Warrior of Tassetchee, a Man of great Power and Interest, who has a Right to be King, and is called Oukah Ulah (that is the King that is to be) Skallelockee, the second Warrior, otherwise Kettagustah, (or Prince) Tathtowie, the third Warrior, and Collannah, a fourth Warrior; and from Tannassie, the remotest Town of the Country, he took Clogoittah and Oukanaekah [later known as Attakullakulla] Warriors.”

Nothing else is known about this man. He died before 1755 (Attakullakulla stated at that time that he was the only one of the men who went to London who was still alive).
