Source does not verify claim

[edit]

Checked the source referenced and it does not match the claim below.

The claim is attributed to: William Sherman Savage, Blacks in the West, Greenwood Publishing Group, 1976, pp. 68-70

Perhaps it was a mistake. Moving text here for now:

Historian William Sherman Savage documented the Bonga children as Marguerite (b. 1797-98 in the Lake Superior area-d. 1880) (m. Jacob Fahlstrom in 1823 at Fond du Lac); Stephen (b. June 1799 near Superior, Wisconsin -d. 1889) (m. Susan); and George (b. abt. 1802 near Duluth, Minnesota-d. 1884) (m. to two Ojibwe women). Cielquiparle (talk) 18:17, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
