I am in the process of moving house at the moment and as a result of the stress I am not quite with it. Thank you for your sound advice and nudge in the right direction (which I will follow).

I am writing two articles for our local (Wigan and Leigh) historical and Heritage Centre and as I have had a lifelong passion (obsession) with the American West I thought I would combine the two fields of study. The first article is about the Lancastrians who fought and died at the Little Bighorn with Custer and the second follow-up is about those warriors who had fought in the battle and went on to visit England with the Buffalo Bill Wild West Exhibition. I know that Black Elk wrote of being lost in Manchester before he was able to rejoin the tour at Liverpool. The show visited Wigan and also Leigh in September and October respectively in 1904 and I am trying to establish if any Lakota, Cheyenne or Arapaho (or even Crow) participants in the Little Bighorn battle featured in the entertainment or were part of the troupe that visited the 2 towns. I would be eternally grateful for any info or nudges in the right direction.
