Ottawa...
"The Ottawa Indians were reported by Champlain in 1615 along
the western shores of Georgian Bay, in what is now Ontario.
From there, under pressure from the Iroquois and later the
Sioux, they moved westward and northward, finally settling in
the region between upper Lake Michigan and Lake Superior.
However, before the beginning of the 18th century they had
returned to Manitoulin Island at the mouth of Georgian Bay.
During the colonial period they maintained alliances with the
French.   Pontiac, who led the uprising against the British at
Detroit in 1760, was an Ottawa.   Many of the Ottawa are still
living on Manitoulin and Walpole islands; others are on reser-
vations in Oklahoma or in Michigan.   Early traditions of the
Ottawa suggest that at one time the Ottawa, Ojibwa, and
Pottawotomi made up a single tribe.   All these groups speak
related Algonquian tongues."
