"The second raid on Neshobe fell on November 20,1779"
"Mrs. Barker fled from her house with her fourteen-month-old
daughter in her arms in the direction of the home of Noah Strong, about three miles away. However, at dark, finding herself completely exhausted before she had gone half of the way, she spent the night in the deserted cabin of George and Aaron Robbins. That night she gave birth to a daughter and it was here that Captain Tuttle and the others
who made up the small searching party found her the next day."
