Biography

EcheLanGonaoQua was Lenape.

Echelangonaoqua, married a chief. They had a daughter Ahquamdegauackwe. [This source varies from others that indicate that Echelangonaockwe was the mother of Wilaquenaho. Editor]

KETCHUM, Nancy - The Lenape name of Nancy Ketchum was Lenape name Aupamundaqua or Aquamdegaockwe. We are using the Ketchum family name of her mother because we are not yet certain who her father is. Nancy Ketchum was married to Isaac Journeycake. To add to the confusion, her mother also went by the name of Nancy Ketchum. The biography of the latter will be added. We are currently working on verifying who her parents were. One family record shows them as William Long and Katy Ketchum. We had previously thought that her mother was Echelangonaockwe and her father Twehullahlah (Chief George Ketchum of Pennsylvania) . It is possible that these two women, both named Nancy Ketchum, were the sisters of Elizabeth (Betsy) Wilaquenaho. Researcher: Vickie Wilkins

The first entry is based on Helen York Rose, I Walked in the Footsteps of My Grandfather, pp. 174a, 177-180, 182, published in 1989. Some of the data conflicts with other sources. As Helen York Rose says on page 175, "The Ketchum Family is a little harder to work on...[as] in the other families I worked on.

1. Twehullahlah. [Possibly born about 1760] His names supposedly translates into "Could Run and Catch Deer" or Catchum=Ketchum, hence the family English name of Ketchum. Twehullahlah was brave of the Delaware tribe, not a chief. He married first Ahkechlungunaqua, a sister of Memshaquaowha (Captain Patterson). (According to Helen York Rose, I Walked in the Footsteps..., p. 177, she was of the Turtle Clan). She died about 1805. Their children were:

2. Lapinnihe had a daughter killed about 1820 or 1821 by the Miami who stole her horses and personal possessions, including a ceremonial doll. He was chief of the Cape Girardeau Delaware and joined Chief Anderson at James Fork, MO, where he died in 1826.

2. Tawhelalen signed the 1832 peace treaty as the third Delaware signature.

2. Tahleeockwhe (Captain Jack, or possibly James. Ketchum), was born 1780 in Tuscarawas County, Ohio, died 11 July 1857 at White Church, Kansas and was buried there in the White Church Cemetery. He served in the War of 1812 under General Cass, enlisting 18 June 1812 and being discharged 1 October 1812 at Fort Wayne, Indiana. Tahleeockwhe became the Chief of the Turtle Clan in 1826, and was Head Chief from 1849 until his death in 1857. He applied for bounty land on 3 March , Jacket No. 183943. Tahleeockwhe was a member of the Methodist Church South for 22 years. His wife is not mentioned. National Archive Records)

2. Ahkeelenqua was born 1786, married Ninundekumen/Owl, A Miami. She was killed 1825 by a Miami Indian.

• 2. Echelangonaoqua, married a chief. They had a daughter Ahquamdegauackwe. [This source varies from others that indicate that Echelangonaockwe was the mother of Wilaquenaho. Editor]

2. Wilaquaenaho, born 1795, died 1858, Kansas [Probably incorrect. Evidence leads us to believe that she died about 1875 in Indian Territory. Editor], married a white trader, William Marshall. See the entry in the Biographies for Wilaquenaho. Editor.] Their children were: 3. John A. Marshall, born 1820, died 1862, married Betsy _______. 3.Anna Marshall born 1825, died 1905, married Moses Grinter 3. Lucinda Marshall born 1827 3. Rosanna Marshall, born 1930, died 1916, married James C. Grinter. [Other sources show the possibility of other children. Editor ]

Twehullahlah married second Menshaquowha, a Sandusky Delaware.

2. Captain George (Kakeewha) (The source says that Menshaquowha "was the mother of Captain George/Kakeewha, so that it is not known for certain whether or not she meant that Twehullahlah was his father.)
