Thayendanegea was given the Christian name of Joseph Brant and received an English education. Brant fought his first battle with the British when he was just a teenager. But this young warrior was also a visionary. Brant clearly understood that Native people faced inevitable change and united various nations to protect their interests. As war chief of the Six Nations and a British military captain, Brant was respected by both sides. And when the American War of Independence ended (1783), he acted as statesman and negotiated land for the Six Nations people. The P. W. Ellis & Co. was established in Toronto in 1879 and produced a wide range of silver holloware and flatware as well as being die-sinkers and medalists. P.W. Ellis & Company was taken over by Birks in 1928.
