Only initials mark the stone of this Indian woman who was beaten to death with a "battling" stick used to stir clothes in a washpot. An original monument was stolen and only a small stone with these initials remain. Researcher Carol Cochran suggests her last name was Axe, a common Cherokee surname of the area.
