There is no documentation to support ANY name for the wife of Teague Jones, much less that she was of Native American origin. If you have a source for the existence of this person, please add it to this profile, otherwise, she should be detached as spouse of Teague Jones.

Also do not add her as a daughter to Samoset (Samoset) Abenaki
