Chief William Anderson

[3] Kikthawenund was born along the banks of the Susquehanna River in or about what is today Marietta, Pennsylvania close to what was then called Anderson's Ferry.Since Lenape society is matrilineal, Kikthawenund was a member of the Unalachtgo (or Turkey) clan by virtue of his mother's affiliation.[6] This treaty established the cession of certain tracts of land by the local indigenous peoples, and because of this, Kikthawenund was forced to relocate to what is now the city of Anderson, Indiana.[1] In 1811, Kikthawenund refused to aid the Shawnee chief Tecumseh and his brother Tenskwatawa (also known as "The Prophet") in reclaiming ceded territory in Ohio and Indiana.Kikthawenund was a signatory of one of the 1818 Treaties of St. Mary's in Ohio in which the Lenape agreed to leave Indiana and relocate west of the Mississippi.
