Description

This woman's story has always had a hold on me. She was the mother of the famous, Quanah Parker, last Comanche chief. To me it's a love story, the way she refused to return to her white people because she loved her Comanche husband and family, and how her husband, Peta Nocona, never took any other wife besides her, even after she was taken from him. She died of a broken heart.

THIS IS WHAT QUANNAH PARKER'S MOM LOOKED LIKE?!! STRANGE, I'VE SEEN PICTURES OF HER & SHE LOOKS LIKE AN INDIAN WOMAN, SUN-BURNT BROWN SKIN WITH SHOULD-LENGTH BLACK HAIR. THIS MUST HAVE BEEN WHAT SHE LOOKED WHEN SHE WAS TAKENN PRISIONER BY QUANNAH PARKER'S FATHER, PETA NOCONA.
