'''Gelelemend''' (c.1737 of 1741–1811) ([[Lenape]]), also known as '''Killbuck''' or '''John Killbuck Jr.''', was an important [[Lenape|Delaware (Lenape)]] principle Chief during the [[American Revolutionary War]].<ref name="succession"/> He supported the rebel Americans, known as Patriots. His name signifies "a leader." He became principal chief of the Lenape in November 1778, following the death of White Eyes, a war chief and Speaker of the Delaware Head Council. Gelelemend succeeded his maternal grandfather ''[[Netawatwees]]''.

Due to undifferentiated American attacks against the Lenape during the war, chiefs of other clans switched to ally with the British. After being pushed out as principal chief, Gelelemend led an American attack on a major Lenape town. He retreated to [[Fort Pitt (Pennsylvania)|Fort Pitt]]. After the war, he converted to Christianity at the [[Moravian Church|Moravian]]s’s [[Salem, Ohio]] mission, where he took the Christian name of "William Henry."
