Шаблон:Use mdy dates Benack's Village was an Indigenous village located in present-day Marshall County, in the present Potawatomi Wildlife Park.[1] It was protected by terms of a treaty signed by its founder, Stephen Benack, and the United States government. The village existed from 1834 until 1848,[2] one of the few Indian settlements allowed during The Removal Period.[3]
Stephen Benack ("Osheakkebe" in the Potawatomi language) was born of French-Canadian and Potawatomi heritage about 1780, and lived with his Potawatomi lineage. He died in 1855, and was buried at the University of Notre Dame.[1]
