Molly Ockett (died August 2, 1816, Andover, Maine), was a Native American woman of the Abenaki nation who lived in the regions of northern New Hampshire and Maine during colonial times. Her Abenaki name meant "Singing Bird", but she was also baptised and given the name Mary Agatha. This was most likely pronounced as "Molly Agat" or "Molly Ockett" by Abenaki speakers. She was born sometime between 1725 and 1744 and was said to be a daughter of the chief of her tribe. Her date of death is given as August 2, 1816. This could be not true, but she was said to have married a minute man in the Revolutionary War by the name of Edward Marden. They had a kid who was named Edward E Marden Jr., and this is theorized because of the photo of her grandsons Nathaniel Richmond Marden and Chapin Kidder Marden. Nathaniel and Chapin look and have a lot of physical features a Native American would have. They are both tall, (Nathaniel being 6 ft and 1 in), and having curly hair. Molly was reputed to be a skilled healer[1] and wise woman with a singular sense of humor. She was well known by European settlers in the area and her name is still attached to numerous locales in the Androscoggin River valley and surrounding territory.[2] Molly Ockett Middle School in Fryeburg, Maine, is named after her,[3] and Bethel, Maine, hosts an annual summer festival titled 'MollyOckett Days'.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Who Was MollyOckett?|url=http://www.mollyockettdays.com/who-was-mollyockett.html|website=MollyOckett Day|publisher=Bethel Area Chamber of Commerce|accessdate=15 July 2016|location=Bethel, Maine}} 2. ^{{Cite web| title = Molly Ockett and Her World| work = Bethel Historical Society| accessdate = 2013-12-22| url = http://www.bethelhistorical.org/Molly_Ockett_and_Her_World.html}} 3. ^{{Cite web| title = Mona Polacca - North America at Evergreen| accessdate = 2013-06-16| url = http://www.evergreen.edu/events/springcolloquium/monapolacca.htm}} 4. ^{{Cite web| title = MollyOckett Days| accessdate = 8 June 2014| url = http://www.mollyockettdays.com}} External links
