Jenny Leigh was the Bannock Indian wife of  the trapper Richard (Beaver Dick) Leigh. In November and December of 1876, she, her newborn child, and her five other children all died within a month of each other after taking in a sick girl only to find out she had small poxes.  Beaver Dick (so called because of his prominent front teeth) live to bury his family and later remarried to a young girl named Susan Tadpole.  One of her grandsons is a good friend of mine.

Jenny was camera shy and in the only known photo of her she was ducking her face down behind the child she held on her lap.  Mostly made up, this sculpture represents her.

It is 15 inches tall with base.
