About the Author
Nancy Lecompte (aka Canyon Wolf) is the founder and research director of Ne-Do-Ba, a nonprofit organization devoted to exploring and sharing the Wabanaki history of Western Maine. Born and raised in Auburn and a graduate of Edward Little, Nancy has roots tracing back to many early families in Androscoggin County and has at least one Native branch in her family tree.
The name Canyon Wolf under which she writes, was gifted to her many years ago. It very loosely translates to “history teacher”, something she was not at the time she received the gift, but has become since.
