Question

1. Who was Frances Slocum in early Indiana? (1 point)

Answer 1

Answer:

She was a settler who became fully assimilated into Native American culture.

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 was viewed as a settler who became fully assimilated into Native American culture, considering the fact that she was a white girl.

She rightly can be called a settler, because according to reports, she spent over 5 decades (50 years) in a foreign land.
