    Abstract:
    Based on Collective Biographies of Women data, and part of a project on biography and space, this work in progress shares emerging studies of short narratives about Indigenous women in North America, particularly Pocahontas and E. Pauline Johnson (Tekahionwake). Methods include maps, timelines, and a stand-aside XML schema outlining sample texts at paragraph level. We show ways to read interrelated biographies of women in terms of race and nationality (as in collections of Women of Canada), in both spatial data about sets of lives in one book, and in narrative features such as titles, scenes of renaming, and persona description (native costume). In spite of differences, Pocahontas and Tekhionwake are presented as serving English-North American relations in the role of Indian Princess.
