George Henry Martin Johnson (''Onwanonsyshon'') (October 7, 1816 – February 19, 1884) was a member of the Wolf clan and selected as a hereditary chief of the Mohawk of the Six Nations in Canada; he also served as an official interpreter and informal diplomat between the Mohawk and Canadian governments. His home of Chiefswood, built in 1856 on the Grand River, has been designated and preserved as a National Historic Site; it is the only First Nations mansion from the pre-Confederation era. ==Early life== Johnson was born at Bow Park on the Grand River on the Six Nations of the Grand River First Nation near Brantford in 1816. The Wolf clan members had founded the Reserve after resettling from New York during the American Revolution. He was the son of John Smoke Johnson, a Mohawk Bear clan chief, and Helen Martin, a Mohawk whose Dutch mother Catherine Rolleston had been captured as a girl and adopted and assimilated into the Wolf clan.〔("Johnson Family Tree" ), Chiefswood National Historic Site, accessed 27 May 2011, Source: Betty Keller, ''Pauline: A Biography of Pauline'', Halifax, NS: Formac Publishing, 1981, p. 4〕 Her father ''Ohyeatea'' (George Martin) was Mohawk. The couple lived with her parents until after their first child was born, in Mohawk custom.〔
