About Creat "Crit" "Drags Blanket", {Fictional}

Not the daughter of Christian Gottlieb Priber who had no children

Not the wife of Chief Chaquelataque Doublehead

Have also seen her first name spelled "Creat" - so consider records with that name also.



Woman of the Wolf Clan


Biography

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Priber-1

There is not a single document or record that verifies this woman's existence. She is mentioned in multiple books and websites, but no proof has ever been offered. [1] Like her equally mythical sister Susanna Caroline, she was created to forge a connection with a Cherokee man. There is nothing to suggest that this woman existed. If she did, she had to have been born after her supposed father joined the the Cherokee no earlier than 1736 and prior to her supposed father's imprisonment (from which he died) in 1744.[2]
There is no way she could have married Doublehead in 1750, when they were both only children. Her supposed children Tuckaho and Cornblossom are also works of fiction created in 1958 by Thomas Troxel in his novel Legion of the Lost Mine.

Unfortunately Conley doesn’t answer the question of just who Doublehead’s earliest wife was. We know he married in the Vanns and also the Chickasaw Colbert’s. Did he have other wives? There is no documented evidence he married a daughter of Priber named Creat, or that such a daughter even existed – that is just a story. Since Jerri Chasteen says there is no evidence Cornblossom ever existed, I think it is safe to say that there is no evidence that her mother, Creat Priber, ever existed, either. Troxell, the inventor of this story, gives no proofs or explanation for it. Troxell did say some of the characters were fictitious. Maybe Cornblossom was one of them.
