<u>She was a settler who became fully assimilated into Native American culture.</u>
Explanation:
Remember, we are asked about how Frances would be viewed in Indiana. So, even though she was abducted at the age of five, Frances Slocum <u>was viewed as a settler who became fully assimilated into Native American culture, considering the fact that she was a white girl.</u>
She rightly can be called a settler, because according to reports, she spent over 5 decades (50 years) in a foreign land.
Because countries who practiced Christianity were traveling the world colonizing different areas and passing on their religion. Remember the 3 G's: God, Gold, and Glory.
