Alex "Ariodinock" VonHausen

=• A childhood in hell... •= Alex was born October 19th in the year 1977. His mother and father were Laura VonHausen (Wabanaki) and Harold VonHausen (German). From birth to age ten Alex suffered greatly at the hands of his alcoholic and abusive father, whom only spared his wrath on Alex when his mother tried to intervene. Many police reports where filed by neighbors and teachers, but outside of a few nights in jail for D.U.I.s and time in the drunk tank, nothing ever came of it. After a few years the locals got tired of Harold and pushed him to having to drive out of county for a bar that wouldn't bounce him off the property before even entering the building. It was in one of these bars that Harold was found dead. Official police report says he started a bar fight that turned ugly real fast, when all was said and done Harold was found face down in a puddle behind the bar. Some one had stabbed him twice in the side of his neck with a beer bottle.

The funeral was short and only attended by the priest and Alex, who, at the age of ten spent the whole day refusing help to bury his father. Some of the workers told us Alex made comment about 'If I bury him he can't come back.'

Now even before this Alex had issues. School record and councilor reports show a continued history of lashing out and prejudice against him. Many of the white kids took to pick on him and beating him up cause he was half Wabanaki. Sadly the other side did the same saying his heritage was tainted and untrue. Alex had no one to turn to in any direction.

It was no secret that the tribe disliked Harold and that Laura's parents did not approve of their marriage. After his death the tribe and Laura made efforts to reunite. Alex was known to spend a lot of time with the man we know as Old Joseph, apparently his Uncle. We are not sure if it is a true familial relation, but for Alex, Joseph was the role model he needed. In fact many of the tribe went to lengths to help Alex heal the trauma and fears his father had put into him.
