| dbo:abstract | Nancy Raven, coneguda també com a Nancy Taylor, (25 de desembre de 1872 – 25 de març de 1957) fou una contadora d'històries natchez de Braggs (Oklahoma) i un dels dos darrers parlants natius del natchez. El seu pare era cherokee i la seva mare natchez, i va aprendre natchez a la llar. Ella mai va aprendre anglès, però era trilingüe en natchez, llengua cherokee i muskogi. El 1907 va treballar una mica amb l'antropòleg John Reed Swanton qui recollia informació sobre la religió natchez, i en la dècada del 1930 va treballar extensivament amb la lingüista linguist Mary R. Haas qui va recollir informació gramatical i texts usant un intèrprete. Entre les històries que li va contar a Mary Haas fou una anomenada "La Dona que era un Llop". A vegades va usar el sobrenom Taylor, que havia pres del seu segon marit. Es va casar quatre cops; tenia un fill, Adam Levi, del seu primer matrimoni, amb el seu segon marit Will Taylor va rebre adjudicacions de terres de la Comissió Dawes el 1907. Aviat va enviduar, es va casar amb un home anomenat Waters, i el 1920 va enviduar de nou i es va casar amb Albert Raven, de qui poc se sap. En la dècada de 1930 va quedar vídua un cop més. El 1930 va vendre la seva assignació de terres. Era cosina biològica de l'altra darrer parlant natchez, Watt Sam, que en la terminologia de parentiu natchez era el seu nebot classificatori. Entre els natchez, la llengua era transferida generalment per la mare, però a la seva mort Nancy Raven no tenia fills que li sobrevisquessin, el seu únic fill Adam Levi havia mort de tuberculosi a l'edat de 20 anys el 1915. (ca) Nancy Raven (also Nancy Taylor) (December 25, 1872 – March 25, 1957) was a Natchez storyteller from Braggs, Oklahoma and one of the last two native speakers of the Natchez language. Her father was Cherokee and her mother Natchez, and she learned Natchez at home. She never learned English, but was trilingual in Natchez, Cherokee and Creek. In 1907 she worked with anthropologist John R. Swanton who collected information about Natchez religion, and in the 1930s she worked extensively with linguist Mary Haas who collected grammatical information and texts using an interpreter. Among the stories she told Mary Haas was one called "The Woman Who was a Fox". Sometimes she used the surname Taylor, which she had taken from her second husband. She married four times; she had one son Adam Levi from her first marriage, with her second husband Will Taylor she received land allotments from the Dawes Commission in 1907. She was soon widowed, then married a man named Waters, and by 1920 was again widowed and married Albert Raven, a man about whom little is known. In the 1930s she appears to have been once again widowed. In 1930 she sold her land allotment. She was the biological cousin of the other last speaker of Natchez, Watt Sam, who in Natchez kinship terminology was her classificatory nephew. Among the Natchez, the language was generally passed down matrilineally, but at her death Nancy Raven had no surviving children, her only son Adam Levi having died from tuberculosis at age 20 in 1915.
