| dbo:abstract | Kwah is the usual English form of the name of the famous Carrier leader Kw'eh. He was born around 1755 and died in 1840. Chief Kw'eh was the chief of what is now the Nak'azdli band in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. In his time, few people lived at Nak'azdli (Fort Saint James), which attracted people due to the location of the North West Company (later Hudson's Bay Company) fort there, which was not established until 1806. The main village was located at Tsaooche (""). Chief Kwah was a significant Keyoh Chief and his land was situated along the Stuart River. The Keyoh system is the customary land governance structure (pre-1846) of the Stuart Lake Carrier peoples and has been in place for at least 500 years. Each Keyoh consisted of a extended family and a Keyoh Chief (Holder) was appointed per customs. Chief Kw'eh held the very important noble name Ts'oh Dai in the Lhts'umusyoo clan. The clans were introduced in 1800s to allow the people a structure for gatherings and funerals, it is a social aspect. Furthermore, each Keyoh Chief could decide to contribute any additional resources to a clan. It was Chief Kw'eh who received the explorer Simon Fraser in 1806 when Carrier people brought his foundering canoes into Tsaooche village in Sowchea Bay. In gratitude, Simon Fraser presented Kw'eh with red cloth. Chief Kw'eh is also known for the incident in which, in 1828, he spared the life of his prisoner, the fur trader James Douglas, who later became the first governor of the united Colony of British Columbia. He was also known for his acquisition of an iron dagger prior to the arrival of the first Europeans in the area, presumably one traded in from the coast. He is the ancestor of a large percentage of the Carrier people in the Stuart Lake area.
