When the Creeks chose him as chief in 1820, he became known as Menewa. On April 26, 1826, he was chosen as the principle chief of the Creek Indian tribes. (This information is from a letter written by Mary Ann Campbell Peigh of Bessemer, Alabama, on December 28, 1970, to her uncle, Joshua Banks Campbell.) Menewa married Hannah Cornell, also a Creek. They had two children, Katee Ann (1786 - 1865) and Little Warrior (1785 - 181?). Katee Ann married Reuben Weed (Creek, ? - 1814; died in Battle of Horseshoe Bend), and they had Katee (1804 - 1890), Hannah (died 1880), and Charity Yoholo (died 1872). Charity, Menewa's grandaughter, married Robert David Campbell (1767 - 1835), and they had twins Asa and Nathan, and two girls and another son who seem to have disappeared with their mother. Asa and Nace were raised by their father's brother, Alvin, upon their father's death. I hope this will help.
