Morledge or Trager? Marshal George Bartlett, owner of the post office/store Louis Mousseau, Anthropologist and writer Warren King Moorhead and an Indian soldier/policeman - in Mousseau's store, which served as a base for journalists during the Ghost Dance 1890-91

I´m right in the middle of identifying some people in a Morledge photo, which I will post later... would someone help me out on this one please?:
What´s the name above Frank Grouard´s?

Nic Gennisse - Half Breed.
It looks like a double-n and a double-s, but it may be a single-n -- possibly it's Jenisse. But it must be an attempt at writing "Janis"!

Apart from the names given above, I suspect that the following persons are also in the picture: Short Man, one of the police men among the Buffalo Bill Show performers. A young looking Joe Black Fox

...also, and this really is tentative (!), I´m wondering if these two could be Lone Bear on the left and Womans Dress on the right:

Great picture! Thank You Dietmar. Buckskin Jack must be John Russell, b. 1847. Seems like he have up wearing buckskin, though.

Yes, John W. Russell, known as Buckskin Jack, born 1847 and died post 1912 (exact date unknown). He came from Missouri to the West as a teen and worked for John Richard Sr. In 1875 he became a scout for General Crook and served for him in the 1876 Sioux War. Later he joined Buffalo Bill´s Wild West Show.

This was in the Nebrasak State Archives and attributed to Moreledge.https://nebraskahistory.pastperfectonline.com/photo/CC1352EA-D805-4BF5-8DA4-593139923806 It shows 'Big Chiefs of the Sioux' I've blown it up slightly for a better look. Any more and it would lose all definition. Anybody have a better version or any identifications? I suppose I may be thrown by the 'title' but if this a Moreledge, just post-Wounded Knee and on Pine Ridge, there are certain 'big chiefs' notable by their absence.

hi Grahame I own copies of the album of the Morledge/Trager/Kuhn photos that were sold at Cowan's on June 9th, 2017 for $ 26'400. I got them back them through an inside contact at Cowans. These have made their way since to Nate D. Sanders Auctions in Los Angeles who disassembled the album for individual sale of the images and from who I acquired four prints some time ago. I'd be happy to forward high resolution scans to you. Rgds, D.
