"Joseph "Kahisigiwid" Gourneau was a signer on this treaty and also the 1863 Old Crossing Treaty. The name as it is shown on this list of signatories us translated "Tree Cutter" while it is translated "Born on a Pile" elsewhere. He is most likely in the photo. His father was Joseph I, also known as Little Thunder, Aniimikance.
If I had to guess, Kah-isig-iwit is the one in the center with a long-stemmed pipe that was smoked at Old Crossing and handed down to my grandfather Pat Gourneau.

When it comes to the Chippewa or Ojibwa, the lost history is staggering. The Fond du Lac band sent Lincoln a letter in 1862 offering to take care of his problem. It made National news. For any of you that are interested here is a link to a sandbox I have on Wikipedia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Mcb133aco/sandbox2
