Depending on the source, she's either the daughter of Choctaw Chief Tusquahoma, or the daughter of Absalom Lott and Martha Jane (possibly Lightfoot). If you look at atDna or autosomal dna, like the Lott Project did, she is high cM in all the expected centimorgans in all the cluster SNP identified by Lott cousins, like the tree is on geni.

Perhaps she has Choctaw ancestry through her mother but the Vann's were of Arawak lines. Martha Lott also went by "Patsy," so the two women may have been confused with one another as this story was handed down.

Notes

From http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~jcbarron/genealogy/lott/lott0001.htm...

Children of Absalom3 Lott and Martha Jane (--?--) were as follows:

48. ii. Frances Lucretia Lott (Lott, Wayne H. 1983. A Quest for Lott Family Information. The Lott Family Newsletter 1(2):42. Gave names of parents); born circa 1784 SC (Letters, Miklas to Barron.); married William Hatten circa 1822 MS (Dorothy Wheat, "Frances Lucretia (Patsy) Lott," e-mail message from Wheat, Dorothy (rlwheat@earthlink.net) to GenForum, 3 Aug 1998, said married William Hatten in Mississippi around 1822. Hereinafter cited as "Patsy Lott".).

She also went by the name of Patsy Lott but this may have been a confusion between her and her mother since Patsy was the common nickname for Martha. She was said to be a Chotaw Indian princess from MS, however, this legend appears to be a confusion between Frances Lucretia and her mother who was also said to be an "Indian Princess." She had the following children: Presley, Absolum, Lewis, Peter, Lawrence, Martha (Patsy), Sarah, and William after 1822 (Wheat, "Patsy Lott," e-mail to GenForum, 3 Aug 1998.). She immigrated between 1838 and 1839 (Ibid., said left Miss. 1838/9...by 1840 were in Ouachita Par. LA which later became Jackson Par.).
