Nonnaunuka his marke
Likely Pennacook, of the Wabanaki Confederacy. Their homelands in the southern-most portions of so-called New Hampshire and Maine, and northern borderof so-called Massachusetts. We’ve also seen this name spelled as Nonnaunuska.
Nonnaunuka’s mark appears here, among many others’, on a petition that captures the testimony of several Native leaders, including Tahanto, relative to the distribution of vast quantities of liquor by English truck house operators to Native people in the area of Pennacook. The distribution and consumption of liquor by all parties at and around the truck house resulted in the death of a settler and later execution of a Pennacook man.
Signed October 15, 1668. Seen at the Massachusetts State Archives.
