ADA BLACKJACK ($115,000 – $160,000+)



Ada Blackjack was an Iñupiaq woman born in 1898. She was also the sole survivor of a doomed 1920’s Arctic expedition to Wrangel Island.

Born near Nome, Alaska, Ada married a dog musher at 16 and had three children. After her husband abandoned them, Ada walked 40 miles to Nome with her surviving son, Billy, but had to place him in an orphanage due to his tuberculosis.

In 1921, she was hired as a seamstress for the Wrangel Island expedition. When a resupply ship failed to arrive in 1922, food ran low. In January 1923, three of the team members left to seek help – never to return. Ada cared for the last sick man until he died, then survived alone until a rescue ship arrived in August 1923!

Despite media attention, Ada never received her full wages but was able to reunite with Billy and pay for his treatment.
