July 29, 1996 ~ January 24, 1997 ~ May 13, 1997 ~ June 24, 1997 Documents Regarding David Andrew Hill - Decoteau, Chief Gilles O'Bomsawin, Nancy Cruger, Walter Watso and Darrell R. Larocque:

Document 01: Letter to David Andrew Hill - Decoteau. Dated July 29, 1996. "Odanak, P.Q., Abenakis Territory Canada. Grand Chief Prince Dave Hill Decoteau, Grand Chief, in answer to yours of July 29, in the year of Christ 1996. How and who am I to declare you Grand Chief when it is your people's choice to do so. I am only the Grand Chief named by my people on the Abenakis Territory of Odanak, Canada.

But as you say so well the arrow by its speed, straightens to hit its target. Let me be honest and loyal to you great people of the Dawn. Because as the three (3) colors the bleu, the green and the red represents the land, the waters and the sunset and as long as that is in place we the people of the dawn shall be there, here on Mother Earth.

And as you say the Barbara Snelling who is lieutnant at the Attorney Office of the State of Vermont said you were the only one that gave his genealogy. So let it be said that the only proof I need is a letter of support from them the people of the dawn either by way of referendum or popular vote. Because to me you are Grand Chief Hill but to them your people, who are you? I have spoken, Grand Chief O'Bomsawin (Fire Keeper).

Document 02: Letter to David Hill from Chief Gilles O'Bomsawin. Dated Odanak, January 24, 1997. To whom it may concern: I, the undersigned, GILLES O'BOMSAWIN, recognized member of the First Nation of the Abenakis of Odanak have been in touch with Mr. Dave Hill for the last two (2) years. He has brought documents to my attention concerning his genealogy. He would be of Abenakis descendance, but he cannot be recognized by our Council because of the distant degree of the generations mentioned. The Odanak nation stops at the third generation as grandfather-father-son. Wishing I could of been of greater help, but as one (1) member only of the Odanak Nation, I cannot be more helpful. Yours truly, Gilles O'Bomsawin, member of the Odanak Nation.

Does this letter indicate or prove that David Andrew Hill Decoteau was indeed of Abenaki descent?

Seems to me the (2) two Documents 3 and 4 of this posting is indicating that Howard F. Knight Jr. merely merged (2) two Incorporations together as (1) one, and then implied that after taking the late alleged Grand Chief/ High Hereditary Chief David Hill to Supreme Court in Orleans County, Vermont, that the two of them were best of sandbox buddies!

Document 02: State of Vermont, Orleans County, SS. Cowasuck of N.A. vs. David Hill and Sheila Hill Filed May 15, 1996 Constance Daigle, Clerk. Superior Court Docket No. S9-1-94 OsC. Judgement: The above matter was heard on the merits on May 15, 1996. Howard Knight, legal agent for plaintiff, appeared on their behalf. The defendants were not present. Based on the evidence presented, the court dismisses Robert Maynard as a party defendant on motion of plaintiff. The court finds that the remaining defendants have interfered with the operatioin of plaintiff, that they are not members of plaintiff, that their participation in any way with plaintiff or any other councils in union with plaintiff is detrimental to the doings of the plaintiff, and that plaintiff no longer wants the presence or participation of defendants in any manner in its activities.
It is therefore hereby ORDERED and ADJUDGED that the defendants and each of them and their agents or anyone acting in concert with them are hereby enjoined from participation in any manner in the affairs or activities or doings of plaintiff or others in council with plaintiff. Dated this 15th day of May, 1996. Signed John P. Meaker, Presiding Judge. Robert Topshe, Assistant Judge. Conformed Copy Constance Daigle, Clerk of Orleans Superior Court.

CASINO MANAGEMENT CONTRACT (1994) of the NORTH AMERICAN PEOPLE OF THE DAWN regarding "Chief" David Andrew Descoteaux dit Hill, ETC:

This document, though unsigned on Page 4 (without signatures of the mentioned names David A. Hill-Decouteau AKA Sly Wolf, his mother Capitola Jane Hill-Decouteau Mother Matriarch AKA Many Moons, Robert W. Bruce Sr. Associate Chief-District Manager and Consultant AKA White Eagle and Chief Tribal Judge AKA Wise Eagle obviously and clearly shows INTENT by the late David Andrew Descoteaux dit Hill and his incorporated "group" of alleged and re-invented "Abenakis" calling itself the North American People of the Dawn. The FACT that this document was created shows intent to establish Casino Gambling in Vermont by these people in 1994. Some sections of the document were covered with "white-out" which, when carefully removed, showed the year when this document was created. I had to scan each legal-sized page in two parts due to the scanner that is used.

Luke A. Willard born July 03, 1978 who claims to be "Chief" of the alleged and re-invented Nulhegan-Coosek "group" was allied with and connected to "Hereditary Grand High Chief" (as he called himself) David Andrew Descoteaux dit Hill AKA Sly Fox I.D. # 048-34-9436, and also to "Chief" Reynold Choineire born January 24, 1929.

I know this dynamic definitively and conclusively because of a particular Bank Checking Account #0115908 at the First Colebrook Bank at 147 Main Street in Colebrook, New Hampshire 03576. Bank Account Authorization date of April 04, 2002, which was created on May 10, 2002 by a Dodie Smith (Business Telephone #802-334-8177).

Remember, that on May 13, 1997 Howard F. Knight Jr. dismissed any further Judicial action against David A. Descoteaux dit Hill  regarding Docket Number 9-1-94-05CV in Orleans County, Vermont ~and~ that on that same date of May 13, 1997 Howard F. Knight Jr. "declared and announced the Uniting of our clan with the Wabanaki Sovereign Nation, (The North American People of the Dawn, Inc.) and the full recognition of the True Hereditary Grand High Chief/ Prince David A. Hill (Wawanolette), forever as long as the grass grows, the moon glows, the rivers flow, and the sun shines. This document was faxed May 14, 1997 at WED 6:50 WABANAKI NATION P. 01.

So, the question is....WHY did Dodie Smith open up a First Colebrook Bank Checking Account in Coos County, New Hampshire, for Chief David A. Hill, Chief Reynold Choineire, and Luke A. Willard on May 10, 2002 in the name of the North American People of the Dawn, Inc. which obviously was in Newport, Orleans County, Vermont? Why didn't this "group" open up a Checking Account in Newport, Vermont or at least in Orleans County, Vermont where they all resided?

THINK ABOUT IT

Clarence F. Hill's Death Record and David Andrew Hill's Death Record Certificate:

Document 01: Clarence F. Hill's Death Record dated April 30, 1947. Notice that the document states that the wife (Informant) was Eva Morse, and that she indicated that her deceased husband, Clarence F. Hill, was "White".

Document 02: "Chief" David Andrew Hill's Death Record Certificate dated  July 09, 2005. Notice that the Death Record Certificate document states that the wife (Informant) Sheila Elizabeth (nee: Schroeder) Hill indicated that her deceased husband was "American Indian" (NOT Abenaki Indian). Yet, when Sheila Schroeder and David Andrew Hill married in Newington, Hartford County, Connecticut on October 10, 1984, David Andrew Hill indicated that his Race/Ethnicity was "White". When David Andrew Hill was born on December 25, 1945 in Plainville, Hartford County, Connecticut to Frederick R. Decoteau/Descoteaux dit Hill and Jane Capitola (nee: Hill), the parents indicated on the Birth Certificate that their son was "White".

It is interesting to note that, when my ancestor's descendant Thomas James Cass (descendant of Parker Preston Woodward's daughter Flora Ella Woodward - Cass) was born in Groveton, Coos County, New Hampshire on February 09, 1923 it is indicated on the Birth Record that the parents and their son were "White". I have not secured the Marriage Record (yet) of Thomas J. Cass dated November 06, 1944 in North Stratford, Coos County, New Hampshire, but very likely it will also indicate that these two being married are/were "White". Yet, when my ancestor's siblings descendant died on October 16, 1996 in Groveton, Coos County, New Hampshire the Death Certificate indicated that Thomas James Cass' "Ancestry" was "English/Indian" and to the right, under "Race" it is "White" that is placed there. I have placed some of these documents of my ancestors previously onto this blog LINK: http://reinventedvermontabenaki.blogspot.com/2009/11/side-step-to-reply-to-anonymous-on.html  

(Just because I am "pointing one finger outwardly, doesn't mean that I am not aware that I am pointing three fingers back at my very own ancestors at the same time").

NOTE: MORE "genealogicial records" will be placed on this blog.

Titigaw (Chief at Missisquoi) whose son Captain St. Francis married to Jean Claude and they had Francis St. Francis who married to Charlotte, and they had a son Michel Frances a.k.a. Mitchel St. Francis who married to Cordelia Collaret or Colomb, and they had Nazaire St. Francis who married to Agles Stag and or Clara Hoag. Then they had Nazaire St. Francis Jr. who married to Florence Hakey, who then had Homer W. St. Francis Sr. who married to Patricia "Patsy" Partlow. Again, the question begs to be answered, IS this genealogical information correct. Eventually I will show and provide the genealogical documentary evidence on this family ancestry of the St. Francis family. It is indeed an interesting genealogical chart, but I ponder if it is legitimately correct in its details.

Document 04: Fax Page 01. Certified True Copy of Birth Certificate regarding Homer Walter St. Francis Sr., son of Nazaire St. Francis Jr. and Florence Hakey. This birth record clearly indicated that the ethnicity of the said son, is "White".

Apparently, David Hill was beginning to investigate, review and evaluate the merits of genealogical foundations for these so-called "Chiefs" of his own interest and agenda in late May or early June 1995.

Document 02: Obituary for David Andrew "Sly Wolf" Wawanotette -Hill-Decoteau dated July 09, 2005, of Newport, Vermont. Hereditary Chief David Andrew Hill AKA Sly Wolf, 59, of Newport, Vermont, met the Great Spirit on July 09, 2005, with his tribe's people by his bedside at the Union House Nursing Home in Glover, Vermont. He was born in Plainville, Connecticut on December 25, 1945. He was the son of Frederick R. and Jane C. Hill (Morse). In his early years, known for his unique auto body work, he also owned his Native American Construction Company. Then he did his genealogy, 15 years of research and learned who he really was, also with his parent's oral tradition of being Chief Greylock's descendant. He was the last male descendant of the great Chief Graylock. Until his grandson was born on June 24, 2005, who will be a 9th generation Chief.

A very positive and devoted Chief to his Nation, of his Native American Heritage, he devoted his last years to supplying food, three tons of clothing, to the people of all in need, and reunity all true Native Americans to the peaceful circle of Love, harmony and peace.

He leaves his wife, Princes Sheila E. Hill of the Algonquin Wabanaki Nation of Turtle Island. He laves to children, four grandchildren, a....

Document 02: Continued from Document 01....great nephew and many nieces, nephews and cousins. He enjoyed his kitties and wolf, trips to the ocean, and always walking at the "Great Sacred Falls" asking the Great Spirit for guidance of his people. A Sacred Native American Ceremony will be held, and was held, with family, tribal people, and Chiefs and Council people from many territories attended. Later his ashes will be spread on the Angel of the Hills of his ancestral lands as he was known to his people as Wawanotette, The Angel of the Hills. The Nation's New Chief will be, Reynold Choiniere, AKA Whitecloud, who will continue to walk the Red Path of Peace with his people, and continue Hereditary Chief Hill's Legacy.

Document 03: Algonquin Wabanaki Sovereign Nation installs Reynold Choinere as Chief (as printed in the Vermont Newport Daily Express on Page 12, Thursday June 15, 2006). NOTICE this was just after Bill S. 117 State of Vermont Recognition of the Abenaki of May 03, 2006 which was passed granting minority state recognition of the Abenaki People as a whole. THERE WAS NO INDICATION OR PROCESS OF DEFINING HISTORICALLY OR GENEALOGICALLY WHO WAS OR IS "ABENAKI". SO, ANYONE CAN CLAIM TO BE "ABENAKI" IN VT AND NH.

Algonquin Wabanaki Sovereign Nation installs Reynold Choiniere as Chief as printed in (Vermont) The Newport Daily Express, page 12, Thursday, June 15, 2006 Part 1 of 2

On Saturday June 3 at 11 a.m. the Algonquin Wabanaki Sovereign Nation held as installation ceremony for their new Chief Reynold Choiniere, AKA Whitecloud, and seven Council members. The ceremony commenced with a Chief’s Dance, called “mowia wegan” which hadn’t been performed since 1870, to honor and respect the Nation. The Nulhegan Band performed a ceremonial opening of the installation ceremony with the ceremonial drum. The elder of the women lead the file of seven chosen women dancers who danced to the ceremonial drum in a circle. The dancers were: Elder Evelyn Pushard AKA Running Water of Randolph, Maine, Mother Matriarch Theresa Van Zile AKA Many Moons III, Princess Sheila Hill AKA Running Water, Councilwoman Sharon Choiniere AKA Cloud Dancer, Janice Conillard, Sheila Marcou, AKA Little Elk, and Denise Russell. At the end of the dance, Chief Reynold Choiniere AKA Whitecloud laid a native American blanket on the leading elder’s shoulder and then followed with each of the dancers. Chief Reynold Whitecloud was assisted by the Associate Chief Raymond Choiniere AKA Running Deer with the blankets. The gifts of the blankets were kept by the dancers.
Claire Bain, AKA Laughing Eyes, read a letter from the United Nations written by Charles Mercieca PH.D. President of International Association of Educators of World Peace. Dr. Mercieca presented former Chief David Hill, the World Peace Award with a Medallion for the Algonquin Wabanaki Sovereign Nation, on December 16, 2000 for resolving peaceful issues among all nations. Claire Bain read Dr. Mercieca’s letter which went on to describe the Peril of Indigenous Tribes/Nations in the continents of North and South America, how Europeans have infiltrated to expand their domain and wiped out numerous indigenous tribes/nations to the point of total destruction. They (the Europeans) developed machinery which have polluted our air and water with toxins that have caused terminal cancer to millions of people. In North America today, the indigenous people have been forced to integrate in the American and Canadian societies and to adopt same lifestyles of these mostly European invaders/settlers. The time has arrived when the indigenous people should be recognized as a nation of their own. In recent years, some of these indigenous people of North America got together and formed their independent old nation under the Algonquin Wabanaki Sovereign Nation consisting of enclaves in both Canada and the United States where indigenous people live. The confederation revives the moribund (dying) old nation which is meant to make richer not only North America but the whole world as well. In forming the Algonquin Wabanaki Sovereign Nation, there is no political precedence created. The said confederated nation will exist as an enclave within the United States and Canada. As such, the Algonquin Wabanaki Sovereign Nation would qualify to join the United Nations. Such Countries also reveal great respect for the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights in which supports the freedom people to get together and form their own independent nation. The very fact that the enclave of the Algonquin Wabanaki Sovereign Nation is found in North America and not, say in China, makes possible for this culturally rich old nation to be revised. The indigenous people do not have in mind to build their own military; they would rather have a demilitarized nation and concentrate on the development of the civilian economy, following the footsteps of both Japan and Germany after World War II was over. Last but not least, such indigenous people want to protect their burial grounds and rich cultural artifacts. They want to eliminate all air and water pollution and they want to initiate their own sovereign banking system. In other words, they want to revive and preserve an old nation which was subdued unjustly by mostly European invaders/settlers. This letter regarding historical and current issues of the Algonquin Wabanaki Soverign Nation of Turtle Island was very well received overseas on many websites. Part 2 will run on Friday, June 16, 2006
The Newport Daily Express, Friday, June 16, 2006- page 9
PART II
The traditional ceremonial custom followed. The Mother Matriarch Theresa Van Zile, AKA Many Moons III, put ceremonial red paint on the forehead of the widow of the late Chief David Hill, AKA Sly Wolf, taking out of her “mourning period”. This ceremony was accompanied by the quiet low drumming of the drum. Following, Princess Sheila Hill, AKA Running Water, made her speech of past rememberences of the late Chief, and his important issues of sovereignty and self government of the Nation. She then presented the Chief Reynold Whitecloud with her ceremonial gift which completed the installation of the new Chief.
The new Chief Reynold Choiniere, AKA Whitecloud, introduced the members of the Council in which was the traditional installation of the Council of the Algonquin Wabanaki Sovereign Nation of Turtle Island.
The Chief spoke about “who we are” as a nation. He described how he wanted to revive the ancient AlgonquinWabanaki Sovereign Nation of Turtle Island to preserve the spiritual and cultural heritage and religion of our people- economic well being of environmental protection of our people and mother earth for our future generations.
In conclusion, Chief Reynold Choiniere, AKA Whitecloud, described a letter from former President Bill Clinton on November 6, 2000. Former President Bill Clinton vowed to honor and respect Tribal Sovereignty, self determination, and self government, in his revising Executive Order on Consultation and Coordination with Tribal Governments, strengthening our government-to-government relationship with Indian Nations.
A bill recently passed in the Vermont (#851) House and Senate which denies the ensurance that all Executive department agencies consult with Indian Nations/Tribes and respect Tribal Sovereignty as they develop policy on issues that impact Indian Communities- as several of the sections on the Vermont passed bill on the Abenaki and all native American people in Vermont, deny and extinguish this, as: (b) the commission shall comprise seven members and a chair appointed by the governor. {The governor has the sole discretion on the selection of the commission members; therefore, no tribal members of Indian Nations can nominate a representative.} The commission shall have the authority to assist Native American Tribal Councils, organizations, and individuals to secure social services, etc. permit the creation, display and sale of Native American/Indian made Arts and Crafts, and legally label them as Native American/Indian made. (18 U.S.C. & 1159 (c)(3)(B) and 25 U.S.C. & 305e(d)(3)(B). Under #853-states this title shall not be interpreted to provide any Native American or Abenaki person with any special rights or privileges that the state does not confer on –or grant to other state residents, nor form any right or claim to land, real estate in Vermont for the Abenaki people, and shall be construed to confer only those rights specifically described in this chapter.
This bill eliminates aboriginal peoples sovereignty!
MORE TO COME- Future editorial articles to be written by Chief Reynold Choiniere, AKA Whitecloud, titled “Facts by the Long Fire” regarding the issues and concerns of Sovereignty for native Americans.
A bountiful luncheon followed for the approximate 70 attendees and the Nulhegan Band drummed during the luncheon. Several tribes’ people sat with them and drummed on the great drum.
