United States, Georgia, 32.75042, -83.50018Frank, Andrew K.2002-09-20Encyclopedia article about Mary Musgrove. Known as Coosaponakeesa among the Creek Indians, Mary Musgrove served as a cultural liaison between colonial Georgia and her Native American community in the mid-eighteenth century. Musgrove took advantage of her biculturalism to protect Creek interests, maintain peace on the frontier, and expand her business as a trader. As Pocahontas was to the Jamestown colony and Sacagawea was to the Lewis and Clark expedition, so was Musgrove to the burgeoning Georgia colony.GSE identifier: SS2CG3, SS2H2, SS8H2, SS2H1text/htmlengForms part of the New Georgia Encyclopedia.http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/Forms part of the New Georgia Encyclopedia.Musgrove, Mary, 1700-1765Creek Indians--GeorgiaIndian traders--GeorgiaWomen translators--GeorgiaCreek Indians--Mixed descent--GeorgiaIndians of North America--GeorgiaMary Musgrove (ca. 1700-ca. 1763)Text
