The Anishinaabe people of the Great Lakes include the Odawas (also known as the Ottawas), the Chippewas (also known as the Ojibwes), and the Potawatomis (also known as the Bodéwadmis)—three interrelated groups that are sometimes collectively referred to as the Three Fires Confederacy. The Bureau also noted a decline in the number reported as Ottawa between 1910 and 1930 and went on to observe that the significant number of Michigan Natives “with tribe not reported in Emmet, Charlevoix, and Leelanau Counties……should probably be added to the number of Ottawa” (Census Bureau 1937, page 38). https://web.archive.org/web/20261008101353/https://ssai.isr.umich.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Anishinaabe-Residence-and-County-Areas-220629.pdf 8 October 2026 Translations a member of the Ottawa people Catalan: ca ottawa, ca ottawes p French: fr outaouais German: de Odawa Korean: ko 오타와족 otawa-jok Menominee: mez Atāwāw Ojibwe: oj odaawaa, oj odaawaag p, oj anishinaabe, oj anishinaabeg p Ottawa: otw Nishnaabe, otw Nishnaabeg p, otw Daawaa, otw Daawaag p Potawatomi: pot Odawa, pot Odawak p, pot Neshnabé, pot Neshnabék p Unami: unm Tawe en Native American tribes Catalan Pronunciation Òtawa Proper noun ca Ottawa Q1930 Czech cs: Pronunciation [wa:va] Proper noun f ottawský cs Ottawa Q1930 cs Ottawa Q60974 cs Ottawa Q576209 Declension f.sg Further reading Danish Proper noun da proper noun da Ottawa Q1930 da Ottawa Q60974 da Ottawa Q576209 Dutch Pronunciation nl Nl-Ottawa.ogg Proper noun n nl Ottawa Q1930 French Etymology fr en Ottawa, ultimately from fr oj odaawaa traders.
