Little Bear Hunkpapa Sioux Little Bear Wounded in the leg when his horse was shot from under him in the Custer fight; rescued by his brother-friend Elk Nation in the Little Big Horn battle.
I looked at the Standing Rock Census 1900 and did not find the information you put up but did find the following in 1885 and 1887 and 1889 and finally on th 1900 census.
HehakaOyate (Elk Nation) born 1856 Spouse: Koligiwin born 1859 Children: James Elk Nation born 1880 Gleska (Howard) Elk Nation born 1881 TaSunke (Bessie) Elk Nation born 1886 Okiyahsni (Amos) Elk Nation born 1887 Wamblisagiyewin born 1891 Eva Elk Nation born 1893 Wanjagle (George) born 1894 Nana (Annie) Elk Nation born 1899 Katie Elk Nation born 1903
I find Koligiwin 65 years old with HehakaOyate who 68 years old in the last census Standing Rock census 1924
here is his children:
James Elk Nation born 1880 Spouse: Alice Elk Nation Children: Rose Elk Nation James Elk Nation Wallace Elk Nation 2nd Spouse Maggie-Cheyenne River Children Levi Elk Nation Percy Elk Nation Narcisse Stricker-step-son Vetal Stricker-step-son Clara Stricker-Step-son

there is Bessie Elk Nation born 1886 who married a Bernard Crowghost she is widow when she is 43 Bessie marries a Charles Village Center Born 1884
It looks like Bessie Elk Nation CrowGhost Village Center died at the age of 48 in 1925.
There is no Fire Cloud only Fire Cloud that I can find is the following
a Bessie Crowskin Fireloud Married a Jacob Fire Cloud
remember the state census can be different by one year which I see all the time and they do have many mistakes on them. I have all the tribal census which I usually go by and they can be different by a year too.

Koligiwin is the one I would think is Black Moons daughter I remember seeing a probate for Black Moon's daughter who married a Elk Nation. I wish I would have gotten a copy of it .

Alysuos Elk Nation 46, abt. 1854 I never found this name anywhere on our census
the only thing i found was HehakaOyate (Elk Nation) born 1856 name was Lewis or Louis spelled both ways on the census His birthdate is either 1854 to 1856 which normal for the census because a lot of time they guess at the year.
I see that after Koligiwin (Crystal) died Louis remarries a Catherine she is on the 1930 census

so here's my question...so Bessie Elk Nation widowed many times is that why she has so many last names{crowghost/village center/ firecloud/blackbear}. Be patient with me I'm new at this genealogy thing, and trying to figure out some of the family history to finish my genealogy tree is kinda confusing when it gets to her. So who is Bessie BlackBear is this her to? and when is her d.o.d an where is she buried? So is Louise Elk Nation her mom? I"m trying hard to follow but my head seems to be spinning .Someone help my head is spinning- someone straighten me out. any help will be greatly appreciated so i may understand her side of the story. And does anyone know of any photographs for Bessie and Bernard CrowGhost?

Hello there, been awhile since i been on the site havn't been to a computer in a long time. well, I just wanted to see if there is a descendant of Elk Nation that I could get in contact with. my e-mail is c_bear_f@yahoo.com I found Elk Nations mother and his two sisters, I just want to make sure what I found was correct, I don't want to post anyone's families lineage without their permission so if anyone out there can put me in contact with a descendant of the Elk Nation that would just be great...thanks
