Synopsis

A little Indian girl was born out in the sagebrush on or about April 12, 1910 on the remote north end of Gollaher Mt. in the northeast corner of Elko County, Nevada. Within days of her birth, her family, the Daggetts, would be on the run. The Indian family, numbering thirteen, had run afoul of horse wranglers, resulting in the death of a young boy with the horse wranglers and a young Indian boy, a member of the Daggett family.The Indian family now numbered twelve, four adult males, and eight of the others were women and children.The family traveled west to the Sacramento River in California before heading east, back in the direction from which they had come. In their travel east they became trapped in a remote canyon in northwestern Nevada. Here they ran into trouble again and were accused of killing four sheepmen. A posse ran them down in north central Nevada and killed all but four children. By 1913 only one of those children had survived. In 1992 she too came to her death at the hands of the white man.
