Esther Montour, (c.1720–), called Queen Esther, was the eldest daughter of French Margaret. She married Echogohund, chief of the Munsee Delawares, and became their leader following his death. Her home was at Sheshequin (now Ulster Township, Bradford County, Pennsylvania). During the American Revolution, she is reported to have led a war party at the Battle of Wyoming in 1778. According to some sources, enraged by the death of her son on the previous day, she participated in the torture and murder of thirty or so of the enemy; as one puts it "she was the most infuriated demon in that carnival of blood." Others dispute this, saying either that reports of atrocities were propaganda, or that Esther did not participate. According to one story she was killed by Thomas Hartley later that year, although other sources state that she died around the year 1800 on Cayuga Lake in New York.
