Chief Earth Woman

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Chief Earth Woman was a nineteenth-century Ojibwa. She claimed that she had gained supernatural powers from a dream, and for this reason, accompanied the men on the warpath.^[1] ^[2]

She was born around 1878 near Waterloo, Ohio as Birtha Snyder, Snider or Snidow. She married a man named "White Owl" in 1893, and she frequently traveled from Ohio to Michigan. She lived in a place called "Old Man's Cave" while in Ohio.^{[citation needed]}
