Mention was first made of Chief Chicagou in 1725, when his visit to Paris was discussed in the December 1725 issue of the Mercure de France.
The Mercure de France reported that Chicagou made a speech to the young French king pledging allegiance to the crown.
In 1730, a letter by Father Mathurin le Petit describes the Natchez and Yazoo War of 1729–1731.
While attacking a village of Natchez refugees near present day Pontotoc, Mississippi, they were defeated and fled when the Chickasaw and English surprised them from behind a hill.
The last mention is by Jean Bernard Bossu in his journal; here he describes meeting with an Indian prince Chicique (probably not pronounced "Chi-ki-kwe" as the ending "kwe" would denote a woman's name) who was the son of the since deceased Chief Chicagou who visited Paris.
