Event Details
Taken captive as a young girl near Gettysburg, Mary grew up as an adopted Seneca, becoming one of them and choosing to remain with and live like this tribe all her adult life. Alisa Dupuy portrays Mary as a bridge between two cultures - she who was born into one but became a woman in another. Alisa will teach some Seneca language phrases, the importance of Native American contributions, the incredible time period she lived in, including the French and Indian War and the Revolutionary War and the story of Mary’s life, legacy and why she chose to remain a Seneca.
