Ots-Toch is the name commonly used for a Native American of the Mohawk Nation born in 1600 near Canajoharie who married Dutch settler Cornelise Antonnisen Van Slyke and founded the Van Slyke family in New Netherland. She was married sometime around 1620 and died in 1646. * Little is known of Ots-Toch, although she is indirectly referenced in many histories of early New York. For example, a daughter, Hillitie, chose to live with the Dutch, but served as an official Mohawk interpreter. Ots-Toch had at least three other children with Cornelise Van Slyke, and may have had more children by a Mohawk father.Some variants of Ots-Toch's legend claim that her father was French, Jaques Hertel[4] * In local lore, Ots-Toch is often compared to Pocahontas, as the two share many similarities. Both converted to Christianity.[citation needed] Ots- Toch, who was married at the age of fifteen to Cornelisse Van Slyke, is reported to have written this song as a young woman, sometime after the Dutch arrived. Though perhaps not considered politically correct in modern-day vernacular, the song she sang to her children, which was passed down through generations to her descendants, goes as follows:[citation needed]* O'er the dark woods and forest wild * My father in his wild nature smiled * with tomahawk and bended bow * to slay the reindeer and buffalo * My brother in his bark canoe * across the lake so gaily flew * to catch the whitefish in the lake * and shoot the wild ducks in the brake * my mother in her wigwam sat * with copious work and curious chat * and I poor little Indian maid * with acorn shells and wildflowers played * and I beside my mother all day * to weave the splintered baskets gay * to pound the samp and tan the skins * and mend my fathers moccasins * I could not read, I could not sew * my Saviors name I did not know * till white man to the forest came * and taught poor Indian Jesus name * He built a church and school house near * with Holy hymns and wildwood cheer * Now I can read, now I can sew * My Saviors name I'm taught to know * Now my Redeemer I implore * God bless the white man forever more." * * This song was passed down through generations of her descendants. * Notes * Jump up ^ Bielinski, link below * Jump up ^ Pearson, pg 342 * ^ Jump up to: a b Biasca, pg 4. * Jump up ^ Pearson, pg 189 |
