Kaokee "Jane" Patawomeck - ?

Debbie Gambrell - I don’t support Ka Okee "Jane" and this tree.

Ka Oke is a controversial profile. There is an oral tradition that was only first written down in the 1980s (I think). In that book she’s a boy. In later work she’s a girl & a Pettus wife. I had never heard of this possibly legendary person as mother of a Mary anything.

Also, the tree is chronically confused.

Ontonah (Mary) Winigum Is shown as married to Lt Colonel Henry Meese, Sr. born 1618. But that’s around the same time Ka Oke was born, so she has a daughter the same age?

Suggest you consult with the profile managers. If we find MPs, merge. As I said, I had not heard of a Mary daughter of Ka Oke before.

The Master Profiles have notes in the “about.” The MPs should be followed and no new profiles made.

wife of Wahanganoche

Name is not KaOkee Mary, her name is unknown. She is said to have been the daughter of Jane Ka-Okee/Thomas Pettus. Her & Wahanganoche's daughter's baptismal name was Mary.

Info from Bill Deyo Patawomeck Tribal Historian 6-5-2019

The name of Ka-Okee’s daughter who married Wahanganoche is totally unknown. It may have been Rebecca, as it would seem logical that Ka-Okee would have had a daughter named after her mother, but we just do not know. She was the mother of Wahanganoche’s daughter, baptismal name believed to have been “Mary”, based on some supporting evidence involving her husband, Henry Meese, but we have no knowledge of “Mary’s” original Indian name. It was not Ontonah, as that was the name of an orphan Patawomeck girl who married into the Curtis family.

I’ll merge the extra Ka Oke.

That’s going to be impossible in this area of the tree. Total speculation, no records. It’s too far back.

Wahanganoche’s wife has notes in profile saying she’s Ka Oke’s daughter. Which doesn’t quite make sense to me if Ka Oke was a Pettus wife, and I had not heard of any other relationships she supposedly had.
