Miami Indian
Genealogy
Miami (?Chippewa: Omaumeg,
'people who live on the peninsula'). An Algonquian tribe, usually
designated by early English writers as Twightwees (twanhtwanh,
the cry of a crane. Hewitt), from their own name, the earliest recorded
notice of which is from information furnished in 1658 by Gabriel
Druillettes (Jes. Rel.1658, 21, 1858), who called them the Oumamik, then
living 60 leagues froth St. Michel, the first village of the Potawatonti
mentioned by him; it, was therefore at or about the mouth of Green Bay,
Wis. Tailhan (Perrot, Mémoire) says
that they withdrew into the Mississippi valley, 60 leagues from the bay,
and were established there from 1657 to 1676, although Bacqueville de )a
Potherie asserts that, with the Mascoutens, the
Kickapoo, and part of the
Illinois, they came to settle at that place about 1667. The first
time the French calve into actual contact with the Miami was when Perrot
visited them about 1668. His second visit was in 1670, when they were
living at the headwaters of Fox river, Wis.
