Eli bhinqa lalililungu lesizwe saseNicoleño, ekwakufuneka lishiye ikhaya lalo elikwisiqithi kunxweme lwaseCalifornia emva kokubulawa kwabantu okwenzeka ngo-1814 okwenziwa ngabazingeli bezilwanyana zaselwandle abavela eAlaska (abo bazingeli bezilwanyana zaselwandle) bashiya isizwe sonakele. Ootata baseFranciscan bapakisha zonke iiNicoleños enqanaweni bazisa kwilizwekazi-bonke ngaphandle koLone Woman, owabuyela umva kuba usana lwakhe lwalushiywe ngasemva. (Kwincwadi ka-O’Dell yayingumntakwabo.) INkosikazi eyiLone yayihlala yodwa kwesi siqithi kangangeminyaka eli-18 ngaphambi kokuba ifunyenwe ngo-1853 ngumfuyi wasiwa eSanta Barbara, apho yafa khona kwiiveki ezisixhenxe emva koko ngenxa yegazi.
USchwartz ukhangele umqolomba awayehlala kuwo uLone Woman iminyaka engaphezu kwama-20, kodwa ingxaki awayejamelene nayo yeyokuba yonke imiqolomba yaseSan Nicolas yayingaphili ngenxa yamaza angena kuwo. Kodwa inqaku elineminyaka eli-133 ubudala Uvavanyo lukarhulumente lukhokelele kuSchwartz ukudakumba okungekho nzulu kugcwele ngamatye esanti kunye nenqwaba yesanti. Ngaphantsi kwayo: Ukuvulwa komqolomba.
