Kandoucho

Kandoucho was a village of the Neutral people in the Niagara country of southern Ontario, known to the Jesuits as the village of All Saints. In the winter of 1640–41 the missionaries Jean de Brébeuf and Pierre-Joseph-Marie Chaumonot reached it after several nights in the woods, with a local guide and two French companions. The Neutral were wary of the strangers, and some people blamed the newcomers for sickness and poisoned water. The missionaries went on to other Neutral settlements, then returned to Kandoucho, where they felt less unwelcome and waited for spring.
