George Mayfield : ウィキペディア英語版 | George Mayfield George Mayfield (1779−1848) was an interpreter and spy for General Andrew Jackson during the Creek War of 1813 – 1814. He was most notable for his adventurous life and dual existence between the white and Native American nations of North America at a pivotal moment in the history of the United States. ==Early life and capture by the Creek== Mayfield's father, Southerland Mayfield lived on a Tennessee homestead on the frontier between the United States and Creek nation. On 10 March 1789, the Mayfield farm was attacked by a party of 10−12 Creek Indians leaving all of the males of the Mayfield family dead with the exception of George's younger brother and 10-year-old George who was held captive by the Creek. For the next 11 years, Mayfield lived among the Creek and became naturalized to their ways. He lost the ability to speak English and purportedly contracted a fondness for their mode of life.
