<DIV><BR class=EC_khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>as for the name there was a man named Non.pah.wa.la which i think translates to causes fear or in pursuit of fear causing something along those lines but don't quote me . There is also an Osage family named Waller. Both are from Hominy. </DIV>

I've noticed the same phenomenon in old Kaw census data, where the name noNppe-waye ('inspires fear') is written in Agent-ese as No-pah-walla. Not so sure what olohah would be, though. Oloha/e?
