Marvelous stuff. Thank you so very much for taking the time to provide this information. Do you have any additional insight on Annie/Waste Win and what her relationship to Red Cloud may have been? Thanks again and very best wishes for the new year!

Milk’s son Daniel, who was also known under his Indian name Warrior, was among the first Lakota students at Carlisle Indian School in 1879. He stayed in Pennsylvania until 1884. He later married another Carlisle student, Victoria Standing Bear. Another son was mentioned in several newspaper accounts as the successor of Chief Milk, when the latter died in 1903. His name was given as Good Kane Milk, sometimes simply called Kane Milk or even Cain Milk. Apparently he inherited Milk´s Indian name Good Cane. Uriah Good King, called in a Hot Springs Weekly Star article on May 15, 1903, the grandson of Chief Milk, was reported to shot himself accidently with a revolver when riding horseback. He survived that incident without serious results. He was possibly the same individual who went to Carlisle from 1895 to 1899 under the name Uriah Good Cane and was more likely a son of Milk. Daniel Milk aka Warrior in Carlisle, 1879 Daniel Milk in Carlisle, possibly ca. 1884

Regarding the 2/11/06 thread which cites the in the "Camping with the Sioux" text, the "eldest daughter who married a half breed and lives like a white woman" was Esther Milk who married Baptiste McKenzie who was the son of a Scottish cattle driver and grandson of Pazaakuwin/Brings Grass woman.

I have a Frank and Rose (Herman) McKinzie as great, great grandparents. My Aunts have told me Chief Milk was a relative of ours. I will have to ask them for some more information.

Baptiste and Esther had a daughter, Margaret McKenzie. She was my great grandmother. Baptiste's parents were Murdock and Therese Latina McKenzie LeCompte (Zizi Win). They only had one child as Murdock never returned from a cattle drive so don't know anything else about the McKenzie side (hard enough putting together the pieces of the Sioux family puzzle). Zizi Win later married Cuthbert Papineau Ducharme. Zizi's mother was Pazaakuwin who married Joseph Lecompte. Pazaakuwin's father and grandfather were Thunder Hawk, and One Feather. I got all this second hand so I can't speak to the complete veracity of all of the above.

According to Information on Ancestry.com Baptiste and Esther had 5 children (Narcisse, Volley, Margaret, Frank, and an unknown infant). One page shows Narcisse belonging to Baptiste and a Shows her tracks. So if that is accurate, Margaret your Great-grandmother would be my Great-grandaunt I think is how they would classify it.

My brother is a lot more up on the family trees but that sounds exactly right from what I know. He would probably have pictures of Margaret and siblings. Good to know ya.
