Let
us return to the story of Teuku Chik Syamaun. His first wife, Pocut Salbiah, a
native of Nanggroe Peusangan, bore two children. The eldest was a daughter
named Pocut Zahara, known among the people of Peusangan as Pocut Buluen because
of her beauty. Their second child was a son named Teuku Ali Alamsjah. The
people of Nanggroe Peusangan honored Teuku Ali Alamsyah with the title of
Commander of War, as he also led the forces of Nanggroe Peusangan in battles
against Dutch invaders.
What
about Teuku Chik Sjamaun’s second wife?. His second wife, Pocut Unggaih, bore
three children: two daughters and a son. The first child was Pocut Sjaribanun,
a daughter from the Uleebalang lineage of Meureudu. Known affectionately as
Pocut Putroue by the people of Nanggroe Peusangan, she was admired for her
noble demeanor. The second child was Teuku Muhammad Djohan Alamsjah, a son
destined to become a prominent Uleebalang in Aceh. The third was a son named
Teuku Bustaman.
