There is a recurring connection to the prominent One Horn family of the Miniconjous. Stephen Standing Bear's descendants, in consultation with Brother C. M. Simon, SJ, Red Cloud Indian School, mentioned no less than three family connections with One Horn's tiyoshpaye of Miniconjou, the Wakpokiyan band. And Red Warbonnet mentions his father chief Shoulder in the same breath as One Horn I (c. 1787-1835). "Shoulder was chief and also One Horn. He does not know who was chief before them." Did they give names for these 3 connections ?

I hope that you will keep publishing these biographies. They say a lot about the personal lives of the people involved.
For Red War Bonnet to survive 36 battles was an amazing thing!! He must have been a very agile and strong warrior. Even more amazing - he is not a very big and muscular person in the photo. He must have been very skillful in war.
I hope that you will do the story about White Hawk when you can.
Thanks!!

Thank you for clarifying, this makes obvious sense. All of my information comes from the book "With My Own Eyes". "Lone Dog's father was a full-blood Sisseton Santee, which relationship was always recognized. Lone Dog was a first cousin to Pahas'a or Red Hill, the chief of the Santees of Nebraska. Pahas'a's father was inkpaduta." "Lone Dog was considered a brave man, although he was not a chief. They lived in lodges that were painted red at the tops, so their band was named Tis'aoti or Red Lodges. My great-grandfather, Lone Dog's father, was a Sisseton Santee. His name was Tawapahas'a, meaning Red Warbonnet. They were intermarried into the Brule's. The Tis'aoti were very active and strong in the hunt or in battle and were respected for their integrity. It was one of their great sports to catch wild horses that ranged over the Platte River country." "They dwelt between the Black Hills and the country lying around Laramie where the buffalo ranged." That is about all I have on Red War Bonnet. There is more about Lone Dog but not a lot. I appreciate your help and find this website very interesting and informative.

All I have on our Red Warbonnet is from Susan Bordeaux's book, "Lone Dog's father was a full-blood Sisseton Santee, which relationship was always recognized. Lone Dog was a first cousin to Pahas'a or Red Hill, the chief of the Santees of Nebraska. Pahas'a's father was Inkpaduta."
This isn't much to go on......Thank you for looking at it though. Kathy
