Zara Cisco Brough
Zara Cisco Brough (1919-1988), often spelled as Zara Ciscoe Brough, commonly referred to as Princess White Flower, was the daughter of Sarah Cisco Sullivan and the granddaughter of James Lemuel Cisco. She served as the Chief of the Nipmuc Native Indian Tribe for 25 years from 1962 until 1987. She is best known for her work to preserve Nipmuc heritage, especially her letter of intention to petition for federal recognition of the Nipmuc as a legally distinct Native American people, which resulted in the Nipmuc being placed on "active consideration" for the status of Federally recognized tribe by 11 July 1995.
During her lifetime she worked as an electronics engineer, fashion designer, drafter, technical writer, and supervisor of government projects. She held the post of "State commissioner for Indian Affairs" from 1974 to 1984. On January 7, 1988 Brough died at a Westbro, Massachusetts nursing home from Parkinson's disease at the age of 68.
In January 2009 a Department of Youth Services facility located at 288 Lyman Street in the city of Grafton was formally named as the Zara Cisco Brough "Princess White Flower" Facility through the House Bill 3231. It had previously been named thus in 2007 but the official act was passed in 2009.
