Fruitless research

Email from Mom asking me to see if I can find the translation for this:

Manian (Marie-Anne) Kijikasowekwe.

Kimathi Kawin Wanikaniwisi

Akakotcij Kisis 3, 1890 = Which we found to mean Feb. 3rd., 1890

Appite EJkwa

Pimatisitc

Entasopobonespan 76

Nitawep Pechik Wonong

All of this is on my great, great, great grandmother's gravestone. It's Algonquin and/or Ojibway.

I've spent hours researching with not much luck.
