Ho-Chunk or Winnebago (as they are commonly called) are a tribe of Native Americans  native to what are now Wisconsin & Illinois. The term "Winnebago" originally came from a name given to them by neighbouring Algonquian tribes. The more correct, but less common English name for the tribe is "Ho-Chunk"  from their original native name meaning "big fish people". The big fish in this case is probably sturgeon, once abundant in Lake Winnebago. The tribe located primarily in Wisconsin changed its official name in 1994 to the Ho-Chunk Sovereign Nation (meaning People of the Big Voice).

Census of the Winnebago Indians of the Wittenberg Agency taken on June 30  1910 by E. J. Bost  Superintendent

NOTE: Listed in this census index are the "English Names" about 1250+ -- if you locate someone that you would like the Native American/Indian name for, just email me and I'll try to locate it in the census.  Approximately 90% of the names also have Indian Names.

The following information was given in the original census: Indian name, English name, Relationship to Head of Household, Age, Sex.  I tried to group these in families per the census but in some cases, the relationships seem not to match the household -- I'm not sure if this is because the census taker wasn't clear on the unit or if Native American culture and family structure is not what we typically see in censuses.
