White Plume (ca. 1765-1838), also known as Nom-pa-wa-rah, Manshenscaw, and Monchousia, was a Chief of the Kaw (Kansa, Kanza) tribe. He signed a treaty in 1825 ceding millions of acres of Kaw land to the United States. Most present-day members of the Kaw Nation of Oklahoma trace their lineage back to him. He was the great-great-grandfather of Charles Curtis, 31st Vice President of the United States. | |
