Joseph Peau de Chat was chief of the Fort William Anishinaabe in 1849 and signed the Robinson Superior Treaty in 1850 on their behalf.[1]
The name Peau de Chat appears in earlier post journals for a prominent Anishinaabe man, brother of Grand Coquin, whose winter hunting grounds were near Whitefish Lake; the journals of the 1820s and 1830s may refer to more than one man of that name.[2]
