Any info about the Oglala Face\Dirt Face\Black Face? Ite Sapa (aka Dirt Face) visited Washington as a member of the Oglala delegation in 1872. Almost nothing is known about him. He probably did not sign a contract before 1872. In Washington he was photographed by Gardner. Photo attached. Maybe friends from Pine Ridge can help?

Hoping to ID two Native American men and Trapper/Trader?? in tin type photo Could the man on the left be the Mdewakanton Santee Hehaka Maza (Iron Elk)? He visited Washington in a delegation with Little Crow in the late 1850s. I think the white man is a soldier.

It could be the same man identified as "Zai" in the photo below. In either case, it appears to be a Warm Springs Scout in both cases.

Was this Geronimo's brother inn law Read this on a web site Edwin Yahnozha (1865-1881) was an Apache warrior in Geronimo's forces, fighting alongside the Confederate Army during the Second Mexican War. He had a sexual encounter with Maria Guerrero in Cananea. She described it as rape, but he insisted it was consensual. The woman's father and brother ambushed Yahnozha and shot him to death. In response, the Apaches raided the town and burned most of it to the ground. He was murdered by Maria’s father and brother does anyone know where he was buried at? This is from fandom turtledove web site Sorry, but what a BS. Harry Norman Turtledove is an American author who is known for his work in the genres of alternate history and historical fiction. As Coeurrouge wrote, Yahnoza was still alive in the 1930s. Yahnoza in the 1920s

Ramona was sent to the Carlisle Indian School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania where she met her future husband. Ramona married Asa Daklugie in 1898. They had six daughters: Maude, Sarah, Lydia, Mona, Maria and Marion.
Emily married about 1905 Teenabikezen / Paul Teenah in Fort Sill, Oklahoma. they had one daughter Edna (Teenah / Comanche) After Pauls death, she married John Hubbard.
Did Chihuahua have more children / daughters?

Carlo, thank you very much! And a thank you to the creators of the website. This is a really great website; you can search for tribes, languages and also treaties. And best of all: you can also export the result of your search! When you print it out with the color layers, it's almost a work of art.

The painting in the middle shows Little Big Man, Oglala Lakota. The artist of the painting on the right side could be Ramon Froman.

Inching closer to solving the puzzle of "enigma" Eagle Shield... I believe that Thomas Eagle Shield, born 1859, was indeed Densmore's informant. He likely joined his father, Sihasapa leader Crawler, in exile in Canada, and therefore most of Eagle Shield's war deeds against the Assiniboines and Crows were accomplished between ca. 1877-1880 (although his first fight was at the age of 14, in 1873.) His father settled on Standing Rock after returning from Canada in 1880, along the Grand River and close to the town McLaughlin where Densmore spoke to Eagle Shield and others. The town was chosen for the proximity to informants living in the southern part of the reservation, so we can assume that Eagle Shield lived close to his parents. The men Densmore spoke to were either Sihasapa or Hunkpapa. Eagle Shield married Ellen White Cow and seems to have identified as a Hunkpapa since then. More evidence could lie in this photo, which allegedly shows Eagle Shield and Frances Densmore. Any information on this photo and a higher resolution version would be most helpful!Re. the Miniconjou connection: The Eagle Shield who surrendered at Cheyenne River in 1877 and gave testimony to Col. Wood, was the grandson of Black Shield and likely a Miniconjou. Aside from the name, both Eagle Shields lived in Canada in 1879, as noted above. But unless someone can produce evidence of a family relationship between Black Shield and Crawler, we can safely assume that these were two different Eagle Shields. Note that the photo in my OP has most often the text "Eagle Shield, Mininconjou" attached to it online. This mistake seems to come from indentifying the two Eagle Shields as one individual. Found this on the Internet: www.pugetsound.edu/about/offices-services/office-of-communications/arches/archive/back-issues/arches-archive/spring-2002/the-wanderer/

Maybe the Sans Arc Lakota White Bull. But they look more like Bannocks to me.
