Mary Jemison (Deh-he-wä-nis) (1743 – September 19, 1833) was a Scots-Irish colonial frontierswoman in Pennsylvania and New York, who became known as the "White Woman of the Genesee." As a young girl, she was captured and adopted into a Seneca family, assimilating to their culture, marrying twice to Native American men and having children with both. In 1824, she published a memoir of her life. (From Wikipedia) More about Mary Jemison:
