A black and white photo of a man sitting in a chair

Baron John Chippewa presides over the remote Duchy of Isabella from his estate River House, located strategically overlooking the junction of the Pine and Chippewa Rivers. Half French-Canadian and half Ojibwe by lineage, Baron Chippewa leveraged his indigenous heritage and family trade connections to secure the title and lands from the U.S. government after Native tribes were forcibly relocated westward.
As part of his compact, Chippewa agreed to facilitate "civilized" settlement growth in Isabella County while serving as steward over traditional tribal cemeteries, sacred sites and ancestral foraging grounds - ensuring they remain undisturbed by pioneers bound for territories farther west. He also operates ready supply of stout horses vital for wagon trains heading toward the frontier.
From River House Great Hall where tribal leaders once gathered, Baron Chippewa now entertains an eclectic mix of aspiring land developers, Québécois trappers, Protestant missionary families and tribal members welcomed to trade or enjoy hospitality thanks to the baron’s unique role straddling cultures and wilderness obligation.
