Hand coloured
black-and-white photograph of Georgina McDougall Luxton by W.R. Round
In 1934, Georgie was made a blood
sister and honorary princess of the Stoney tribe. She
was given the name “Rainbow Woman” because she always
brought peace after the storm. “As the rainbow ends the
storm so have you stood between the storms in the Indian
women’s lives.”
Georgina responded in Stoney that she
would share with them their joys and sorrows as in the
past and expressed sentiments of great appreciation to
her blood sisters for the magnificent costume they had
made for her, and that her new allegiance to the tribe
would strengthen the bond of friendship which had always
existed between them.
