The person you are referring to is likely Mary Musgrove. She was of mixed English and Native American descent and played a crucial role as a trader and interpreter in early Georgia. Musgrove is especially known for her role in facilitating communication between English settlers, including James Oglethorpe, the founder of Georgia, and the Native American leaders such as Tomochichi, the Yamacraw chief. Her trading post served as a significant point of contact between the two cultures, and her fluency in both English and Native American languages made her an invaluable asset in negotiations and relationships during that time.
