the single morning within 1758, a capturing person consisting of sise Shawnee Indians & little joe Frenchmen captured Mary and her personal along by owning the son from either an additional personal. Mary’s life was spared; but, her mother, father, & terzetto of her sib were flushed & scalped. Mary was taken to Fort Duquesne (where a Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers meet to create a Ohio River in modern-day Pittsburgh) and then downriver by 2 Seneca Indians, and given to ii squaws, world health organization adopted her. She was given a title Dichewamis, which means "The Pretty One".

She married the Delaware and had ii sons. Late she married the Seneca known as Hiakatoo & experienced sise extra tikes. Called a White Woman of a Genesee, Mary Jemison refused to leave the Senecas, & around 1817 New York confirmed her possession of a tract of land (given her within 1797) on the Genesee River.

Her story is told around the classic tale of "Indian-capture," J. E. Seaver's Story of the Life of Mrs. Mary Jemison (1824; latest ed. 1967). Occasionally subsequent retellings of her life by more authors, written when her dying, bent the cases of her life to serve a racist, nationalistic worldview. Seaver's, but, is considered by virtually all history scholars to exist as the reasonably precise narration.

There is a bronze statue of Mary Jemison, created around 1910, around Letchworth State Park in New York.
