His birth order name was Hagaga, "Third Son."[1] He was a member of the Bear Clan. His clan name was HaGaChaCooKah, which is for Hagacaguga, from Haga, the birth order name for the third son; ca, "deer"; gu, "to return, to leave returning, to come back"; and -ga, a definite article suffix used in personal names.[2] So the name means, "Haga Returns with Deer."
He died on 19 Sep 1973 (aged 79) in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, USA, and was buried at Blk 45, Lt 02, Spring Grove Cemetery, Wisconsin Dells, Columbia County, Wisconsin, USA.[3]
