Actually, in the state of Indiana. The historic town of Vincennes, IN, has a Harrison-Tecumseh High School, named after soldier and later President William Henry Harrison and his sometimes foe Shawnee chief Tecumseh. Tecumseh was at least as good a soldier and a much better statesman, IMHO.

The motor is an American "Tecomsa" which would be "Tecumseh" by a better speller. (Tecumseh was a famous Indian chief in the now state of Ohio, who died fighting to keep the whites out of the Northwest Territory.)
