Myth/Legend: The Only Daughter of Nathaniel Austin
Summary/Link: This is a story that is very well known, or at least it used to be, in my neighborhood. There isn't much known to compare the story to so I'm telling you what I know. The story goes a little something like this. It's the French and Indian War. A young Polly Austin, child of Nathaniel Austin's second wife and only daughter, goes to a quilting party with a few friends from several farms in the area. During this quilting party, the residents received word of a pending Indian attack, so everyone was sent home. While being escorted home, Polly realized she had left behind her scarf. She insisted the group keep going on while she went back. She got her scarf and was on her way back when Native Americans captured her. Many reports say that they realized who she was and were angered at her father for a previous attack on their people. As a result, Polly was scalped (which is unheard of since most women were captured and kept as sex slaves or sent up for ransom). Her scarf was sent to Nathaniel's estate as a message. The tribe mysteriously disappeared after that, many people speculating that Nathaniel and his friends killed all the members of the tribe as revenge for Polly's death.

Extra: I picked this myth in particular because her gravestone is in my backyard. And it you don't believe me, I have photos.
