Comment on Chief Cornstalk: Shawnee Lineage by Lawrence Clark

I believe you are placing anglo practices to that of the Native peoples of that era the 1720′s. It was Not uncommon for marriages to take place by age 8 in some tribe cultures, however your statement on naming practices is closer to the truth. Parker V had married Mary Frye and Bluesky, I believe people over time have combined the two, so that now we have, Mary Bluesky -
I am supposing that it should be, Mary Frye (anglo) and Bluesky Cornstalk, (Native) which would follow the Native naming practices of that era.
I believe that Parker V might have thought he might “Get Away” with marrrying Bluesky, while having already been married to Mary Frye- only because they were so far removed from his homeland with Mary Frye.
The timeline suggests that at Parker V’s marriage to Bluesky they would have been deeper into the Virginian countryside apposed to the Mason County area of Ft.Pleasant ( now Point Pleasant W.V) there would have been approximately 100 mile difference between the two.
