The Spaniards were Cajuns

In Spanish service and under Spanish rule,no doubt, but they were Cajuns. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.37.84.125 (talk) 12:07, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Changing or adding to the title of El Heturnò

Greetings all, I am unfamilar with proper wikipedia syntax for now, but I wanted to mention some information I found.

The Anishinaabe leader listed as El Heturnò might be better represented as Sigenauk. He was however referred to as El Heturnò in spanish documents, and as L’Étourneau in french ones. As such, Perhaps "Sigenauk (reffered to as El Heturnò in Spanish documents)" might be an appropriate edit?

I am pulling this information after reading the paper "Sigenauk’s War of Independence" - https://www.academia.edu/61785290/Sigenauk_s_War_of_Independence_Anishinaabe_Resurgence_and_the_Making_of_Indigenous_Authority_in_the_Borderlands_of_Revolution

The passage on this is on page 655, which I have included below, aswell as its citation (5)

"Tracking Sigenauk’s activities within archival records can be a challenging endeavor because Native individuals such as Sigenauk acquired different names and titles in diverse settings. French traders in the Great Lakes called him L’Étourneau, “the Starling,” whereas Spanish officers in Saint Louis corrupted his French name to El Heturno. British officials in the Great Lakes recorded his name in wide-ranging variations of Sigenauk, his Anishinaabe name. Citizens of the United States used his name’s rough English translation, “the Blackbird.”5

“Asiginaak” in Anishinaabemowin denotes the red-winged blackbird, a species endemic to the marshlands of the Great Lakes. See the Ojibwe People’s Dictionary, an online resource created and maintained by John Nichols and the University of Minne-sota’s Department of American Indian Studies,https://ojibwe.lib.umn.edu, accessed July 21,2021. It seems to have been a common name among the Odawas of the Michilimack-inac region. See, for instance, the surnames and lists of relations throughout Andrew J.Blackbird,
