Few details are known about Cheeseekau's early life. He may have been born along the Tallapoosa River in what is now Alabama. His parents, Puckeshinwa and Methoataaskee, moved north to the Ohio Country around the time of his birth. After Pukeshinwa's death in the Battle of Point Pleasant in 1774, Cheeseekau assumed much of the responsibility for his younger brothers, including Tecumseh and Tenskwatawa.[5][6] During the American Revolutionary War (1775–1783), Cheeseekau joined with those Shawnees who allied themselves with the British and sought to drive the American settlers out of Kentucky. After the war, as Americans expanded into Ohio, in 1788 Cheeseekau led a group of Shawnees to Missouri. American colonists were moving to Missouri too, and so Cheeseekau instead resettled his band at the village of Running Water on the Tennessee River. There he joined Dragging Canoe's militant Chickamauga Cherokee, fighting against American expansion. He died On October 1, 1792 after being mortally wounded during an attack on Bledsoe's Station, a frontier fort near Nashville, TN.[7][8] Notes1. ^{{Cite encyclopedia| title = Shawnees| encyclopedia = Tennessee Encyclopedia| accessdate = 2013-02-17| url = http://tennesseeencyclopedia.net/entry.php?rec=1197}} 2. ^{{Cite news| volume = 12| issue = 5| last = Alvin M.
