3614. Francis Xavier ROUENSA
Fancis Xavier Rouensa ( Mamentho腴�ensa ) was Chief of the Illinewek Indian trib in the 17th/18th century. The Illiniwek Indians (aka: Illini) were part of the Algonquin Indian nation that eventually relocated to the vicinity of Fort De Charles, Illinois.
When French explorers first journeyed down from Canada to the upper Mississippi Valley in the early Seventeenth Century, they found the region inhabited by a vigorous, populous Algonquin nation who called themselves "Hileni" or "Illiniwek" which means "men." This the French rendered as "Illinois". Today most people know little about this once powerful confederation of tribes: the Peoria, Tamaroa, Cahokia, and Michigamea..
