Susan Vasseur

Mrs. Susan Vasseur (reported by Wooster to also be known as Susan Corbeau) is # 1593 on the 1907 Wooster Roll where she is identified as the sister of Theophile Otter # 1586. Susan's traditional name is recorded as "Nawakwedauokwe" meaning "Mid day sun woman" but the name, its meaning and significance require scrutiny and comment by those with expertise in nuances of the Anishinaabemowin language and Potawatomi culture.

In 1907 when Mrs. Susan Vasseur was age 37 she was living with her 6 children at Honey Harbour, Ontario where she held NO rights in Canada.
