Wabiwindego (literally “White Wendigo” or sometimes "White Giant") (d.1837), also spelled Wobwindego, Wobiwidigo, or Wabaningo, and known among the Ojibwe as Waabishkindip (literally “White-Headed”), was a leader of the Grand River Band of Ottawa in what would become the U.S. State of Michigan. He negotiated the 1836 Treaty of Washington with the federal government on behalf of the Grand River Ottawa, leading to the admission of the State of Michigan to the Union. Several villages he led formed the basis for several modern Michigan towns, including Lowell, Whitehall, and Montague.

  • Wabiwindego (literally “White Wendigo” or sometimes "White Giant") (d.1837), also spelled Wobwindego, Wobiwidigo, or Wabaningo, and known among the Ojibwe as Waabishkindip (literally “White-Headed”), was a leader of the Grand River Band of Ottawa in what would become the U.S. State of Michigan.

Several villages he led formed the basis for several modern Michigan towns, including Lowell, Whitehall, and Montague. Wabiwindego shared leadership of his band with Keewaycooshcum until 1821, when Keewaycooshcum was exiled to Manistee, the most remote of the Grand River bands' villages, for selling Ottawa land in the 1821 Treaty of Chicago without the tribe's authorization. Wabiwindego later shared leadership with his son-in-law, Cobmoosa. (en)
