Jane Johnston Schoolcraft
Jane Johnston Schoolcraft, also known as ''Bamewawagezhikaquay'' (January 31, 1800 – May 22, 1842) is the first known American Indian literary writer. She was of Ojibwa and Scots-Irish ancestry. Her Ojibwa name can also be written as ''O-bah-bahm-wawa-ge-zhe-go-qua'' (''Obabaamwewe-giizhigokwe'' in modern spelling), meaning "Woman of the Sound (the stars make ) Rushing Through the Sky." She lived most of her life in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan.
==Early life and education==
Jane Johnston was born in Sault Ste. Marie in the upper peninsula of what is now the state of Michigan. Her mother, ''Ozhaguscodaywayquay'', was the daughter of ''Waubojeeg'', a prominent Ojibwa war chief and civil leader from what is now northern Wisconsin, and his wife. Her father John Johnston (1762–1828) was a fur trader who emigrated from Belfast, Ireland in 1790. The Johnston family is famous historically in the Sault Ste. Marie area, where the couple were prominent leaders in both the Euro-American and the Ojibwa communities. The young Jane learned the Ojibwe language and culture from her mother and her family, and she learned about written literature from her father and his large library.〔(Margaret Noori, "Bicultural Before There Was a Word For It" ), ''Women's Review of Books'', 2008, Wellesley Centers for Women, accessed 12 Dec 2008〕
