By Sandra Guy A University of Northern Iowa professor’s historical research is receiving national attention as several New England communities grapple with the legacy of controversial statues.  Professor Barbara Cutter has been interviewed in multiple nationaloutlets about her research on Hannah Duston, a 17th century English colonist who murdered 10 Native Americans, including two women and six children. Duston had been kidnapped in an Abenaki raid in 1697 in Haverhill, Massachusetts, and lost her infant in the hostilities. Her captors placed her with a Native American family about 60 miles north in New Hampshire. She and two fellow captives killed and scalped 10 members of the family and escaped. The atrocities happened during King William’s War one of many colonial disputes between the English and French in which many Indigenous people in northern New England allied with the French to fight further English expansion onto their lands.
