Summary

Paul Kenwabikisssee is named in March 1974 as the operator of the fish tug Sonny Don and as a participant in harbor-ice test netting. The source also calls John his eldest son; that direct source statement is preserved as a source-qualified parent edge.

Evidence and limits

The OCR preserves the source spelling and does not establish a full legal name, birth date, occupation history, or identity bridge to other Kenwabikise records.

Sources

  1. Names Paul Kenwabikisssee as the operator of the fish tug Sonny Don on a March 22–25 freight trip and as the leader of a week of D.N.R.-approved harbor-ice test netting. The source gives no civil biography and does not connect him to the separately named Joseph Kenwabikise record.

  2. The held nine-page issue scan is paired with the OCR source and confirms the published notice or report; it does not expand the source-specific identity, event, or outcome claims.

  3. A participant identified Paul as a grandfather and two respondents recalled being welcomed at the family home and at community meals. This is family/community recollection, not independent evidence of a formal chiefly title or a complete biography; the spelling and kinship claim remain source-qualified.

  4. Reports Paul Kenwabikise making a commercial catch of more than 1.5 tons of whitefish. The December spelling differs from the March source spelling; the event link is retained as a source-qualified name continuity, not a civil identity record.
