"0639 hours EDT 29 April 2005. Kwai Kwai Mr. Leckie, I see by your letter wherein you discuss the families in the Danville-Morrisville/Morristown area. Also, you too have your problems with the "selectiveness" of Swanton and Odenak as to who is and is not Abenaki. You are not alone and I have said little to anyone outside my family though I could say much, especially since I have ties to the same areas and even further back, right back to the 1750's and 60's in Swnaton, Dunham, Lower Coos and elsewhere. I even have the original Abenaki family names at Dunham-Swanton, as well as the at The Oxbow at Lower Coos and some other lines.

I always wondered as to why when there was a ruckus in Danville (before the Town Hall burned in one of the many mysterious Town Hall fires of the time and the records of the town were lost) that certain families lined up with others against some others why the inicident was known around the area.

I now know why, from your remarks, the Woodward/Woodard family was aligned with my father's family, the Knight's, Gear-Giguere, Caswell, Tanner's, the Silsby's, Drown's and several other families on a list that I have that I got from the old Town of Danville Board of Selectmen, the Town Constable and some others. The details are sketchy but it was a real nasty situation at the time.

Also, your remarks no give me the clue as to why and how the Eugenics people went after my father and the family right after he and my mother  married in 1937 (on June 01, 1937 in Derby, Orleans County, Vermont); because this Eugenics lady picked up on my family from the alignment of families in the ruckus in Danville.

If you are living in the Vermont or greater New England area, as I.....

The reason I am placing this divorce record on this blog is because NO ONE, neither adoptive parent, Howard Franklin Knight, Jr. nor his wife Minnie, nor the Judicial Judge in the matter NOT ONCE mentioned that the parties were of "Abenaki" "Cowasuck" or "Indian" Descent. Why not? IF these two parents of their grandson, were claiming as they have been in other documents in other events and situations, why weren't they claiming they were Cowasuck, from the Clan of this and the Clan of that, Chief this and Senior Advisor of the that?

Dear Mr. Bruchac;

Enclosed, as promised, is the complete copy of the booklet by Mariella Squire as you requested. She repeatedly steps over the line and she persists in her lies and half truths, plus plagerism and deceit when she doesn't get her way.

It is clear that she will not quit until a way can be devised to end her rampage, as a so-called Abenaki. It is clear that she, her sister Ann Squire, and the odd-balls of the Women's Hoop are trying to destroy all of us, at any costs; and these books are the way they will attempt to publish the failed effort the book you stopped from being published last year.

If I can help in any way, feel free to call upon me; and you are always welcome in my lodge.

Dear Chief Pouliot, and To Whom it Concerns;
This letter is issued to allay any concerns that they may have in regards to the leadership of the Coos Peoples during this turbulent period due to the recent meeting in Swanton.
I. Chief Howard F. Knight Jr. (Chief Rushing Water) do hereby declare, in short and sweet terms, that I support Chief Paul W. Pouliot (Chief Spirit Hawk) in whatever decisionis he may make as the new Chief of the Coos, which took effect upon the day of the meeting in Swanton, VT. I am officially retired as Chief, having been Chief for 10 years. It was, and it is, time for new leadership, and it is even clearer now that Chief Spirit Hawk is the leader that the Coos Peoples need at this juncture in its history.
I am still Chief of the Turtle Clans of the Coos People, but I am retired as the Coos Tribal Band Chief. I will be available to Chief Spirit Hawk for advice, if he asks, or whatever else, otherwise I will not speak. I ask all to support the new Coos Chief in all he does.
Respectfully submitted with Warmest Regards to all of the Coos Peoples.

So, what was Howard Franklin Knight, Jr. up to in creating this document? It appears that his intention (based on subsequent words and actions by him after writing this document) that he was merely ONLY TEMPORARILY handing Paul Wilson Pouliot "the reins" or "Chief" title only UNTIL "the heat left the kitchen". Whereupon Howard Knight, Jr. wanted the alleged "Chieftonship" returned back to him, but then Paul Pouliot got used to the title, and wouldn't give it back, which pissed off Howard F. Knight, Jr., and so in May of 1994 and later in July 1994 Howard F. Knight with the help of Homer St. Francis, Sr., began to create a "smear campaign" against Paul Wilson Pouliot. Or was it all just a collusion between Pouliot and Knight to create yet another Inc. group in Massachusetts, to create the illusion and delusion of a self-created so called Incorporate Abenaki Nation?

As one will see in future documents, this alleged "retirement" of Howard F. Knight Jr. was repeated; again, and again, and again. These "retirement's" are documented factually.

November 02, 1994 The Journal Opinion Page 08: "Perspective on candidates, To the Editor: Many Abenaki and other native Americans, as well as many non-native people living within the ancient Cowasuck-Coos territory of Vermont, have been calling and asking me, as one of the leaders in the Abenaki Nation, to speak out in regards to which of the candidates should be considered by them in upcoming election on Nov. 8 (1994). I must make it clear that I cannot, I will not, and I do not speak as the chief spokesman of the Cowasuck Council of the Abenaki Nation; but I can, I will and I do speak as a registered voter and as a citizen of the state of Vermont. I look at the candidates throughout the ancient Cowasuck-Coos territory of Vermont. I look at them from the perspective of the ancient Abenaki attributes and laws of respect, straight-forward dealings based upon honor, personal integrity and their strength of personal intergrity, plus one of the most important attributes known as simple family oriented values. From my perspective, as I see it, based upon personal talks and intereviews in my home and elsewhere with the candidates or their personal representatives, or with those who are clearly informed in regards to the candidates and their positions on the issues, the following list of candidates are those that either I will personally vote for or for whom I would vote if I lived in the areas/districts mentioned, and I recommend them to all the voters, whether they be Abenaki, other Native Americans onr non-natives residing within the respective areas/districts mentioned: U.S. Senate, Matt Mulligan, Ind.; U.S. Representatives, no recommendation, no comment; Governor, Homer St. Francis, Ind., (write-in); Lt. Governor, Barbara Snelling, Rep.; State Senate, Orange County, Stephen Webster, Rep.; Orange/Caledonia, Julius Canns, Rep. and Robert Ide, Rep. (with reservations); State House, Thetford area, Ruth Dwyer, Rep.; Bradford area, no recommendation; Newbury area, Peter Mallary, Dem.; Barnet/St. Johnsbury area, Leigh Larocque, Rep.; Cabot/Peacham area, Caleb Pitkin, Dem. In Orange County, in the sheriff's campaign, it is like in Caledonia and Essex Counties, no recommendation. With the newest disclosures in the news media, since I am a student of the U.S. Constitution, I would have to say that the use of the sheriff's department for delivery of personal letters and threats, without a court order to back it up, is clearly unconstitutional, as well as a violation of civil rights and political intimidation. Our freedoms and our rights are hanging by a thread as it is here in the socialist state of Vermont. Howard F. Knight Jr. Newport, VT P.S. There are only three writs allowed by the U.S. Constitution, and clearly a writ of harassment is unconstitutional, as well as illegal.

Sunday, March 31, 1996 The Providence Sunday Journal, Page B-01 and B-14: Abenaki Tribes celebrate unity~The event in Atteboro brings representatives of more than a dozen different East Coast Indian tribes. By: Christian D. Berg, Journal-Bulletin Staff Writer in Attleboro, Massachusetts. "More than 100 Native Americans from throughout New England and eastern Canada gathered here yesterday to share their ancient heritages, practice sacred customs and offer prayers of peace. Sponsored by the National Federation of the Republic of the Sovereign Abenaki Nation, Grand Council of Southern New England, the event brought together representatives of Abenaki councils from across their territory. The Abenaki nation is made up of more than a dozen different East Coast tribes stretching from the Maritime Provinces in Canada south to North Carolina. Yesterday, for the first time ever in Southern New England, the Abenakis gathered at Bethany Congregational Church on Newport Avenue before making a short "unity walk" to a field at Hill Roberts School on Roy Avenue, where traditional ceremonies were held. Along the way, many members of the gathering eagerly shared their reasons for being there. "It's like a big family reunion," said Lester Little Fox, 57, of Quebec (Claim(s)(-ed) to be "Montagnais Indian from Quebec, Canada", was "Medicine Man" for Ralph Skinner Swett's, Clan of the Hawk, Inc., over in Evansville, Orleans County, Vermont. See Business Card Below). "To me, it's like coming home again, because we all have to live in the white man's world, but when we come together, we are home. It brings a spirit to my heart and uplifts me." For Rushing Water, 54, of Newport, Vt. (Howard Franklin Knight Jr.) the day was a call for unity and peace among the Abenaki peoples. When Europeans began to settle North America, said

 

(Page B-14) Rushing Water, the Abenaki nation was divided and the tribes turned against one another. Now, more than 300 years later, they are coming together as one. "We're trying to bring an end to the warfare and the fighting," said Rushing Water, who is the chief of the Grand Council of the Cowasuck Tribe, from Vermont. "We're all one nation, and this is part of the healing process to bring us all together, if we don't come together and unify, we're going to lose it all." And while Rushing Water (Howard Franklin Knight Jr) said that unity among the tribes is essential, it is just the first step in bringing about the ultimate answer to their prayers, which is peace among all peoples. "We've got to go beyond all that," he said. "We've got to reach out to all races -yellow, black, white and red-because we've got our children and that is our future." Eagle Warrior of the Sun, a 53-year-old member of the Lakota tribe from Derby, Vt., offered his own spin on the peace issue. "I hope and pray that peace will come between the tribes and all people, but we can only find peace without our hearts. It begins at home," Eagle Warrior said. Upon arriving at the field at Hill Roberts School, several tribesman lit a fire in the center of the sacred circle, after which Chief Walter Watso, leader of the Abenaki nation, opened the ceremonies by offering a wampum peace belt to Raymond "Looking Glass" Lussier of Attleboro, Massachusetts, chief of the Grand Council of Southern New England. Everyone was invited to be blessed with smoke from the fire and enter the sacred circle, where Wildcat, a 69-year-old Micmuc from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia offered a prayer and advice to his kinsmen before a celebration of native dancing. Wildcat admonished his fellow Indians that religion is not just for sacred ceremonies, but for every day of their lives. "Being an Indian is a spiritual ways to conduct our worship.

This Application for Membership by Howard F. Knight Jr. MUST have been filled out in the year 1981, since Franklin W. Knight II was born in April 1966. If Howard Jr. and Minnie's son was born in 1966 and was 15 years old at the time of this document being created, then the time frame for this Application would be in 1981. Later, in Exhibit #33 Howard F. Knight Jr. states that, "he joined the Coos Tribal Band and took my seat on the Tribal Council as a Clan Chief representing my family Clan, in about June or July of 1980". If that were the case, then Franklin Warren Knight II, would have been 14 years and 2 months of age at the time of this Application being filled out by Howard F. Knight Jr., thereby Howard's son would not have been 15 years old.

So, NOW that one has seen and reviewed the Vital Record Documents from 1846 onward through time and pertaining to Ida May (nee: Geer) Knight and her ancestors, and their descendants, DOES ANYONE SEE ANY CONNECTION TO Odanak, or to Pierreville, Quebec, Canada? Does anyone FIND any indication of her being Abenaki, identified or identifying on any level shape or form as such?

When Howard Franklin Knight Jr. came to Vermont "from wherever" Texas he began to "reinvent and re-create himself" based on LIES, DISTORTIONS, DECEPTION, and DECEIT. He knows it, I know it, and now we all know it.

Betting dollars to donuts, Howard Franklin Knight, Jr. was and is lying about his alleged Native Abenaki Cowasuck connection(s) that NEVER existed in the first place! How much more "stories" coming from Howard Franklin Knight, Jr. are just fraudulant made-up "stories" that he self-created over the years since 1979-1980?! I do wonder.

Since Howard F. Knight Jr. was "rubbing elbows" with the likes of the late (deceased) Homer St. Francis, Walter Watso, Darrell Larocque, Raymond Looking Glass Lussier, Robert H. Maynard, David Decoteau dit Hill, Brian Chenevert, and of course Nancy Lee (nee: Millette) Cruger - Lyons - Doucet.....

My mother always said, "You are the company that you keep..." so if Howard Knight Jr. has documentarily been shown to have lied, not once, not twice, but more than can be counted, regarding what he's said in the past regarding the Abenaki/Cowasuck.....well what does that make anyone whose "rubbed elbows" with him?!

Thieves and Liars, Deceiver's and Manipulator's know no shame or guilt!

If Howard Franklin Knight, Jr. was and is willing to LIE and DISTORT his own grandmother Ida May (nee: Geer) Knight's historical and genealogical history, WHAT ELSE HAS HOWARD F. KNIGHT JR been willing to lie about?!

Yet, ONWARD must this blog go, to show and provide the further documentary evidence regarding Howard Franklin Knight's historical record of lying, deceiving, manipulating and insulting the very Abenaki People, Ancestors and descendants alike with his b.s.

....and this includes so many more "players" of the Reinvented Vermont and New Hampshire so-called "Abenaki."
