Tecumseh had other wives than Mamate; the last of whom was Wa-be-le-ga-ne-qua: "white wing." He lived with her from 1802 to 1807, but it is not known that he had other children than the one son; but there may have been others.
disputed ancestry
Seen as daughter of "Young Peter," Sachem Cornstalk & Elizabeth Shoemaker. Disconnected Feb 2018 based on the citation below:
Tecumseh: A Life, 1999. link
"The year 1802 saw him in a happier, if ultimately no more successful, partnership, this time with Wa-be~le-gu-ne-qua, or White Wing, the daughter of an influential Shawnee chief named Half Moon. Half Moon dips in and out of our sources without betraying much"
disproven family
seen as first wife of Elijah Adkins with children
"Sometime after "Little Nancy" was born, White Wing "Big Nancy" took her little girl with her and ran off to be with the warrior CHIEF Pukeshenwa Tecumseh."

"There is a record that shows Elijah born 1771 or 1772, and not 1764 or 1765. He married Nancy Hunter February 1790 in Virginia. ....Richard, Lewis and Nancy Atkins, we the Family believe are children of Morris Atkins of Grainger Co., Tennessee, and not Elijah's. Morris possibly being the Son of the Older Richard Adkins, Parker's Brother. ... We believe the Elijah Adkins - White Wing information to be in error."
But if Elijah was born 1771 he could not have been having children in 1785. Disconnected as wife of Elijah Feb 2018.
From Chief Cornstalk: Shawnee Lineage 2010:
Elizabeth Catherine d/o Frederick Michael See & Catherine Vanderpool “See” ... Now Elizabeth Catherine See took as her second husband the son of Chief Keigh-taugh-quah Hokoleskwa Cornstalk known as Stout Man Wneypuechsika CORNSTALK (1742 – 1832) and he took her as his third wife. She mothered White Wing Nancy “Big Nancy” Cornstalk (1770-1843) whom married my uncle Elijah Adkins and ran off with Tecumseh Peekishnoah And Margurette Ice Tecumseh (1768 – 1813). After Nancy ran off taking with her their only daughter, first husband Elijah took his sons, and moved away, changing their last name to Atkins.
