She was either an Indian, or "Half-Breed". Her birth date is also not known with any certainty.

Her parentage is not known, she first appears in the records at her marriage, and the baptisms of her children.

She died either giving birth, or within hours of giving birth, to her last child. Her death is recorded in the records of St. John's Anglican Church.

It is entirely possible that her surviving children could have been turned over to her parents/siblings to raise, as this was a common custom in that area at that time.
