About Sarah # 1 Jacob
Sarah # 1 Jacob is # 1378 on the 1907 Wooster Roll where she is identified as the daughter of Mrs. Lizette Jacob # 1366. A second daughter of Mrs. Lisette Jacob, also named Sarah (#2) Jacob but 13 years older, is # 1390 on the Wooster Roll. The first Sarah's traditional name is recorded as "Mashkikwe" meaning "Medicine Woman" but to gain fuller and more accurate understanding the name and translation require scrutiny and comment by those with expertise in nuances of the Anishinaabemowin language and Potawatomi culture. The second Sarah Jacob, 13 years older than Sarah #1, has a different traditional name - "Oshkikwe" meaning "Young woman". The Wooster Roll reports that the older Sarah Jacob # 1390 had no children.
In 1907 when Sarah Jacob # 1378 was age 28 she was living at Manitowaning, Manitoulin Island, Ontario where she held full rights in Canada. In 1907 when Sarah Jacob # 1390 was age 41 she was living at Sheshegwaning where she held only partial rights in Canada.
