"The lineage of the Blackhawk family, as given by John Blackhawk, is as follows: First, Chiakamanika (He who goes on the village), wife unknown. Second, his son, Naxi-karajusaip-ka (Fourth son, Blackhawk). Third, his son, Sayokoruspinki (Acceptance of sacrificial moccasins), Thomas Blackhawk, who died in 1899 aged ninety-five (near Black River Falls). His daughter, Henuka (First girl) married Kaxinopaka or Two Crow, and she lived to the age of one hundered. She died in Winona, Minnesota in 1904." (Jipson, 241) Exaggeration of age is commonplace among the Hočągara. As Thomas Blackhawk's eldest daughter, it is more likely that she was born in 1824, when he was 20, and that she died at the advanced age of 80 rather than 100.
