  • Described By: Rachel CNX 1497 7714A
  • Title: Rare 1875 Native American Land Grant President Grant Ottawa Chippewa Michigan
  • Description: The consigners family is originally from Beaver Island Michigan, and they were close with the tribes in the area. While this was signed by Ulysses S Grants secretary David D. Cone and not the man himself it still has immense historical significance since these were only granted to 300 Native Americans. The phonetic spelling of the Native Americans name is Peter Aw-we-way-me-no and he was granted “The east half of the southwest quarter of sections twenty eight in township thirty nine north, of range eleven west in the state of Michigan containing eighty acres.” This is recorded in “Ottawas and Chippewas” Vol 6 page 809. The back side reads “Register Office Manitou County received for record the 30th of July 1878 at 11 o clock am and recorded in deeds page 446”
