As a child, I watched "Daniel Boone." Or "Davy Crocket," forget which.

I was always perplexed by the "Indian" supporting character with a
British accent.

Oxford will do that to you. Don't know if they said how long he
spent there- but that's where Mingo got some education. [There were
probably *real* Cherokee of that era who went to Oxford-- There were
certainly *real* Native Americans that went to England for school.]

Ed Ames, who played Mingo was from Massachusetts- He faked the accent
better than the skin color.
