JFK used his father's connections to get assigned to active duty. Says Dallek, "He was determined to get into combat. It was part of the culture at the time, patriotism. But he was heroic in doing that." Listen to the Legend of the White Buffalo Where Will Our Children Live... A lonesome warrior stands in fear of what the future brings, he will never hear the beating drums or the songs his brothers sing.

- Browse By : - LETTER TOPIC BY KEYWORD: The Potawatomi Indians lived mainly in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin and Ontario. They speak a form of the Algonquian language and were closely related to the Chippewa and Ottawa Indians. During the late 1600s and the early 1700s, the Potawatomi Indians struggled with the Iroquois Indians over the Ohio Country . The Potawatomis sided with the French during the French and Indian War . Following France's defeat, the Potawatomi Indians assisted Pontiac in Pontiac's Rebellion . During the American Revolution and again in the War of 1812 , the Potawatomis allied themselves with the British. The natives feared white Americans would continue to swarm over the Indians' land if they did not receive assistance from the English. The Potawatomi Indians did not have a large presence in Ohio. By 1841, most of these natives had moved to reservations west of the Mississippi River. OHIO HISTORICAL SOCIETY OHIOKIDS!

The Illiniwek When French explorers first journeyed down from Canada to the upper Mississippi Valley in the early Seventeenth Century, they found the region inhabited by a vigorous, populous Algonquin nation who called themselves "Hileni" or "Illiniwek" which means "men." . This the French rendered as "Illinois". Today most people know little about this once powerful confederation of tribes: the Peoria, Kaskaskia, Tamaroa, Cahokia, and Michigamea. The purpose of this web page is to provide an overview of the Illinois People which will hopefully stimulate the reader to further investigate the history of the Illinois people and their population decline. Peoria warriors with captive near Lake Pimitoui Diorama photograph used with permission of Illinois State Museum The Confederation The five most populous tribes of the Illini Confederation were the Kaskaskia, the Cahokia, the Peoria, the Tamaroa, and the Michigamea. Other smaller affilliated groups were the Taporouas, the Moingwenas, the Chinkoa, the Omouahoa, the Coiraconetanon, and the Chepoussa, While some authors (e.g., Scott) consider the Wea (Ouiatenon) and Piankeshaw to be Illinois affilliates, in fact these two well-known tribes are members of the Miami family. The Miami and Illini did speak a mutually intelligible language, albeit with dialectical differences. Early French commentators believed that the Illini and Miami came from a common ancestral tribe that split in the late prehistoric period
