Ostenaco
Ostenaco (''Ustanakwa'', or "Big Head") (also known as Judd's Friend), lived c. 1703 – 1780. He preferred to go by the warrior's title he had earned at any early age, ''Utsidihi'' ("Mankiller"), He was known as a great orator and a leading figure in diplomacy with British colonial authorities. Ostenaco was a war chief (''skiagusta'') of the Cherokee town Tomotley, and had resided previously in Great Tellico. He was probably born in Great Hiwassee, finally migrating later in life to the town of ''Ultiwa'' on Ooltewah Creek (in the modern Hamilton County, Tennessee) during the Cherokee–American wars. ==French and Indian War action== During the French and Indian War, Ostenaco at first aided the Colony of Virginia against the French and the Shawnee, traveling over 3,500 miles on foot and by canoe. In 1756, he led 130 Cherokees in a joint Virginia-Cherokee campaign on the frontier of what is now West Virginia. In 1757 and 1758, his war party raided the French stronghold at Fort Duquesne (present day Pittsburgh).〔Wood; ("Ostenaco" ); WV Encyclopedia online; accessed September 2015〕
