My daughter Mandy found this pic while doing a search on my Native Canadian (American) ancestor. She was a Huron Indian princess who was born in 1624, and this pic is a perfect visual of what she may have looked like along with her husband Martin Prevost, a French trader.
My mother and my dad's uncle have done considerable genealogy work on my family over the past several years even to the point of my dad's uncle doing a DNA test. Through this test it is believed this Indian Princes is in my family heritage. Her name is Marie Manitouabeduich (you try and pronounce...) Marie was her given English name and it is believed she married Martin Prevost from France. They married in Troise Riveres, Quebec, Canada. And who knows, it may be her and my Meyette ancestor from France! Interesting... and something to SMILE about today.
