    (Margaret's Mother Died When she was 4 years old, she would of been Razed by the second wife
    a Sauteuse Indian. Maybe this would be a partial explanation to her husband John Bapte. SansCrainte and son of the same name intimate ties with the Indians besides being born
    at the Coast of the Potowatomies and having a brother that was half blood-(Kevin Lajiness)

    SECTION VI
    HUGH HEWARD'S JOURNAL FROM DETROIT
    TO THE ILLINOIS: 1790

    Thursday Ap1 1st 1790. Early in the Morning came to red
    Cedar under the high Banks & continued with a Strong
    Current the Water by the Banks to nearly Mid Day when
    we met with several Small pine Trees the Banks still high
    & barren abounding with diminutive Red Oak Trees & the
    Soil with Fern, about 4 oClock passed an Indian Cabbin
    & Cornfield & arrd at Sans Craints5 before Sun Set. Distance
    & Course nearly as yesterday. Encamped.
    Friday April 2d 1790. Could not get an Indian to pass
    the Portage but engaged one to meet us at the Fork of the
    River to conduct us this Post seems to furnish good small
    peltrie Sanscrannt seems to have about 12 packs. Set off
    about 10 oClock our Course up the River nearly West

    Notes:
    5 On the Sanscrainte line see ante, 324. Apparently the individual here noted
    was Jean Baptiste Romain dit Sanscrainte who was born in 1754 and married at
    Detroit, Oct. 13, 1778, Margaret Solo. She was buried here on March 19, 1793.
    They had several children born at Detroit, most of whom subsequently became
    residents of River Raisin settlement. Sanscrainte was bitterly accused by the
    British authorities of pro-American activities prior and subsequent to Wayne's
    campaign of 1794. See Denissen, op. cit., and Mich. Pio. Colls., XII, 162 ff.

    Potawatomi Warriors Missions and Métis Compiled By Kevin Lajiness 1660-1750. 1660 the Potawatomi were agricultural, and their movement south after 1680 was most likely motivated by a desire for better soil. Nicolas PERROT d’ ABLANCOURT (1606-1664) was made member of the Academie Francaise in 1637 in Seat 20. In 1670 he was sent to the West by Frontenac to take formal possession for France. The Algonkin remained important French allies until the French and Indian War (1755-63) and the summer of 1760. By then, the British had captured Quebec and were close to taking the last French stronghold at Montreal. In 1665 Father Allouez , the founder of the principal western missions. By 1665 all of the Potawatomi were living on Wisconsin's Door Peninsula. About the year 1665 the French made peace with the Iroquois, and Lake Ontario and Lake Erie were opened up to settlers. French estimated there were about 4,000 in 1667 . All Potawatomi bands had gathered into four villages near Green Ba...

    Kevin Lajiness 1 min  ·  Linwood, NJ  · It was Said That Pierre Roy, My Ancestor, was at Detroit before Cadillac (Pontiac was a typo) and he married a Miami named Margaret Ouabankikoue, this was told to me by my father as a child and the marriage was confirmed to me much later in life , now i have found the evidence that shows he was at Detroit before Cadillac. From the  evidence  below it is clear to me that the father of the Detroit Pierre Roy traveled to the Detroit area more than once and probably brought his son, who would of been old enough to get involved romantically, my father did mention Belle Isle but said "our people came from the Island just south of there" This is further substantiated by the record of   M.
