I am a descendent of William "Indian Billy" Ice through my grandparents: Bernard and Jessie Ice, formerly of Champaign and Oak Park, Illinois and finally of Davis, California. I am seeking information on the children of Frederick (Ten Eycke) Ice: Christine, Mary, and William "Indian Billy" Ice, who were "captured" by Indians in approximately 1752 while Frederick was away from the settlement. Grandma Jessie used to tell me the story when I was growing up in California, I I heard it once while visiting one of Grandpa Bernards sisters in Indiana. I have some family history gathered by my Mother's sister, Dorothy (Ice) Thauwald; but I am hoping to find specific information pertaining to "Billy", and the sister(s) who I believe stayed among the Indians.

I would truely appreciate any and all information that you may be able to provide regarding this early episode in my family's history.

Hi Marsha. You've been to my site before, but I never could figure out how you are connected to Indian Billy. I'd like to get your side of the family tree updated if you could possible help. Feel free to write to me direct if you'd rather not put information out publicly in this forum. Thanks, John

I am not an Ice. I am a descendant of Frederick Dragoo, cousin to Louisa Dragoo who married Fielden Ice. In doing my Dragoo family, I also included the Ice family as well as many others as to get my information, marriages gave me more than I could find by just sticking to Dragoo. I also understand that one of the Ice girls married the father of Tecumseh. In stories about the great warrior, it includes a Rebecca Galloway. Indian Billy Ice's middle name was Galloway so I have some ideas that these Galloways who befriended Tecumseh were maybe family members of Indian Billy Ice's mother. I copied a lot of information from the Fairmont, WV library about the Ice family genealogy and the connection with the Indian, Tecumseh.
