Notes |
- It is believed that Mary & her husband Charles Henry Nuhalt emigrated to the northern US states. During these times the French & English would raid each others territories. These raids were primarily to steal furs. It is believed that Mary & her son Samual Charles were taken prisoner by the French & Huron Indians and brought back to Quebec City.
In order to free herself & her son from slavery she renounced her Protestant faith & converted to Catholic. In turn she was granted French citizenship & freedom. It is believed that it was at this time that the Tisdele name was changed and her son took on her maiden name.
I is believed that Mary remarried to a German mercanary hired by the French to help fight the English.
