The sources for this page range from a Geocities link to a news feed, to a newspaper article that seems to post-date the creation of the article itself. Google Books turns up one (inaccessible) result, Google Scholar nothing other than the aforementioned newspaper article (the reference in American Indian Wars is to a Squandro tribe, not an individual). I think what may have happened here is a confusion with Squanto, plus some heavy local myth cruft and an author with a ghost story to tell. Vizjim (talk) 10:05, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

- Delete The article is full of inaccuracies regarding the peoples and location with no historical record of supposed events. This is simply a local myth. Indigenous girl (talk) 14:39, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
