There is not a single document or record that verifies this woman's existence. She is mentioned in multiple books and websites, but no proof has ever been offered. [1] Like her equally mythical sister Susanna Caroline, she was created to forge a connection with a Cherokee man. There is nothing to suggest that this woman existed. If she did, she had to have been born after her supposed father joined the the Cherokee no earlier than 1736 and prior to her supposed father's imprisonment (from which he died) in 1744.[2]
There is no way she could have married Doublehead in 1750, when they were both only children. Her supposed children Tuckaho and Cornblossom are also works of fiction created in 1958 by Thomas Troxel in his novel Legion of the Lost Mine.
