Sacagawea

She would give birth during the expedition to Jean-Baptiste Charbonneau on February 11, 1805. Six years after the expedition ended in 1806, Sacagawea gave birth to a daughter, Lisette on December 22 1812.

Sacagawea died in year 1812 when she was 24 or 25.

Yes Sacagawea was an Indiana princess

Sacagawea saves Lewis and Clark's lives because she knew the Shoshone people. Lewis and Clark were on the brink of starvation, when they found an Indian tribe. They were the Shoshone, Sacagawea's origin people. Since she knew them, and her family was there, Lewis and Clark got food and she saved their lives.

she had both a boy and a girl. the boy was named pomp, and the girl was named lisette. pomp was born first.

Sacajawea (or Sacagawea) was born c. 1788. in an Agaidiku tribe of the Lemhi Shoshone in Idaho. In 1800, when she was aboutten years old, , she and several other girls were kidnapped by a group of Hidatsa warriors during a battle. she was forced to marry a person she didnt like

Born around 1788 as a member of the Lemhi band of the Native American Shoshone tribe,
Sacagawea became the property of French-Canadian fur trader Toussaint Charbonneau who married her.
President Thomas Jefferson had made the Louisiana Purchase from France in 1803—828,000 square miles of almost completely unexplored territory.
Within this vast wilderness he hoped would lie the rumored Northwest Passage (a waterway connecting the Atlantic and Pacific oceans). That never existed.

She could identify roots, plants and berries that were either edible or medicinal. And by being with these men (Lewis and Clark) she was able to help them buy horses and understand the tribes they can across.

She died at 25, on December 22, 1812 probably of typhoid fever.

sacgaweas mother died because of old age. She was 45 when she died

She did not receive a proper education according to contemporary Western standards. She would have received a form of survival and native education while growing up. Although her skills as a translator and somewhat of a navigator for Lewis and Clark speaks to her learning potential.

Her husband, Toussiant Charboenou, Pompey, her son, her brother, Shoshone Cheif Camewawiaet, and her mum, Sacajawonoo, and her da, former Cheif Camaniewawawiet. She had no pets. Her tribe was shoshone.

Legends say Sacajawea, a Shoshone maiden was captured by the Hidatsu Indians and brought to their homeland, around what is now Bismarck, North Dakota around 1800 when she was allegedly about 13. She married Toussaint Charbonneau in 1803, making her probably around sixteen. However, no one really knows when she was actually born, so she could have been younger or older when she married the French trapper.

She was with the Corps of Discovery until they arrived back in St. Louis on September 23, 1806. After the expedition, William Clark offered Toussaint and his family a place in St. Louis and a proper education for Jean-Baptiste (at a time where there was no opportunity for Native Americans to receive an education). After her death, her husband signed over formal custody of his son and his daughter Lisette to William Clark.

Upon Sacagawea's death, her husband Toussaint Charbonneau gave William Clark full custody of their children. This included Jean-Baptiste who was born during the expedition and who Clark had affectionately nicknamed "Pompy" or "Little Pomp." Clark also adopted their daughter Lisette, who was born six years after the expedition ended but who did not survive infancy. William Clark himself already had a big brood to take care of, but he nonetheless gave Jean-Baptiste a formal education in St. Louis at age 18 he traveled around Europe and even Africa. He then returned to become a scout, mountain man and a 49er in the California Gold Rush. He died of pneumonia near Danner, Oregon at age 61.

she teasilated Indian for them and brought a good cook with her

French trappers set up trading posts along the Misissippi river and would trap beavers and otters to trade to the indians.

Sacagawea's motivation was to help her husband

Lewis, Clark, her son Pompy, her daughter Lisette, and her husband Toussanit Charbonneau ( he was french)

She wasn't a guide, as some people believe. She only knew the lands where she grew up.

One myth says that she was "romantically involved" with Lewis or Clark. This is not true.

im sorry 2 say ur wrong but u r. she was kidnapped by an enemy tribe (Hidatsa) then a few years later she was sold or traded to her "husband" Toussaint Charbonneau. That's how she met her husband. By, D.B.

It is clear because of course Sacagawea didn't want to leave her father and home.

She translated to other native American tribes. Plus, she carried her baby Jean on her back. So instead of the expedition being mistakin for an army, other native tribes would never attack a group with a women and an infant. What a cool way of protection!

-The Scholar-

No they did not. Sacajawea was about thirteen years of age when she was bought and taken as a wife by Toussaint Charbonneau, a French trapper. She would join the Lewis and Clark expedition after her husband was interviewed to be an interpreter. Lewis and Clark (esp Clark) weren't overly impressed with his skills, but were impressed with Sacagawea who spoke Hidatsa and Shoshone. Therefore they hired Toussaint and Sacagawea naturally came along.

if it werent for sacagawea the louis and clark expedition may not have been a success

His name was Cameahwait; he was chief of the Shoshone Indians.
