Her father arranged a marriage between Noccalula and a Creek Indian Chief in order to bring peace between the two Indian nations, but she was in love with a warrior in her own tribe. It is told that on her wedding day, rather than marry a man she did not love, she leaped to her death into the ravine by the falls.
