OK -- one more time...
Maybe there's some confusion (easily though....) coming along with websites ?!
the ..nativeamericanindianassocation.com/ (the one, that is "taking a break")
is / WAS the english version of the -german- site: ..indianermedizinmann.com ----
where the bio of Firecracker got an own page.
Yet -- someone in the already mentioned german forum "saved" and pasted the english bio on Jan. 21. 2009..

QUVTLE HEVGOLO TURTLE WINDS, Firewalker was born in 1966. He is of mixed bloodline (Native American and Irish Celtic). His grandmother was Cherokee. She comes from the Buffalo Mountains. His native ancestors have been living for centuries in the Appalachian Mountains of Eastern Kentucky. Once the Trail of Tears led through that land. Turtle Wind‘s dad came from Ireland and was a Celtic druid. So he inherited the shamanic abilites of two worlds and two cultures, which both are in intensive connection with Mother Nature.
Turtel Winds leans more into the Native American spiritual path, having grown up in a Native American family in Appalachian Mountains and having been trained by his grandmother in the art of herbs and medicine.
Turtel Winds is skilled in the art of omens, dream interpretation, herbal medicine and different shamanistic practices. He is a ceremonialist, meditation instructor, practices different massage technics, energy work, sweatlodge (inpi) ceremonies, healing and vision quests,
Turtel Winds traveled around the United States for 25 years {
sic}, performing Native American sweatlodge ceremonies. Being of mixed blood, having ancestors of two different worlds with indigenous cultures, he has increased his talents in shamanic understanding of Mother Earth. Turtel Winds is not only a talented speaker, but also an expert in the field of Native American ceremonies.
During his journey he had the great opportunity to study and practice with some of the best Native American medicine people, living during his life time. Turtel Winds conducted countless Native American ceremonies that were taught to him from childhood to this present time. He dedicates his work to all the generous people who shared their precious knowledge with him and especially to the Native American Indians.

{{ somewhere... in the unknown depth of my pc.. I saved those parts about the "Woodland Duck Clan" -
... I need to search but would believe that the shared 'bablefish translation' is good enough to get a sense about, how his mind? is working ?! }}
But still... the "friends - site" is online -
http://www.nativeamericanfriends.com/ where one find the very same addy under *contacts' - Mr. Firecracker use (along with several others)
I just 'read back' in the "William Jervis" topic.... where "indianer" spoke for *his son* [17-1-09 # 9:41:13 AM] ---- yet clearly understood it should be "He Wo Knows".
Well - it was written by Mr. Firecracker (or initiated by him) !
The only reason I bring up this again is to point out that "He Who Knows" {IYE TUWE SLOWAY = ??} is a real person.... with no clue what Firecracker is posting by using his name ! After 50 years of rodeo riding [?] he might be good trained with horses, but necessarely not with the internet. He even might not know that there are vids at YouTube - showing him shaking hands with a few in an empty room {'nature conference 2008' -- the first time, when he was invited to Europe} etc. ?! How sad is this ??
And again: there are several MORE "Profiles" in the cyberspace, pretending to "know" Mr. Firecracker... and his integrity - while those blessed *Indians* can effort an e-mail account with the -german- telecom, which IS'NT free as Hotmail, Yahoo etc. is !! LOL
Enough !
Oh NO.....
May I ask.... why is "cherokee medicineman" still in this section
IF one deserve to be called 'fraud'... it is Mr. Firecracker, aka Firewalker, aka Turtle Winds, aka William Jervis, aka William Burchett, aka ~ aka ~
(( gosh -- I must ask him to pay ME for all the time I spent meanwhile ! ))
done ~
