Gawenase was amused when called a Scottish Mohegan dancing at a Bagpipe Powwow. However, in reality, she is a direct descendant of those who came over on the Mayflower and of those who greeted them with mixed reactions. She is an enrolled member of the Coos Cowasuck band of the Abenaki and has a line that does indeed go back to the Mohegan.
