I got a request from a website visitor: To start I was brought into the LaPlaunt family as a stepson in about 1950. the LaPlaunt family has a history in the state of Montana some in southern Mt. before 1912, northern Mt. after that, due to the family really not to proud to be considered a part of the native american population not much was passed on. 50 some odd years ago my step Uncle,Paul LaPlaunt told me that one of his uncles (no name was mentioned) was a scout for Custer and that Sitting Bull had had a price on his head and that he was killed in the battle. A article that I recently read about Mitch Bouyer got me to thinking about the story my uncle told me. Paul LaPlaunt's father Napoleon LaPlaunt was born in ReedPoint,Mt. in 1876 at what was refered to as the Crow Agency and was the son of a French Canadian Trapper.And I was curios as whether The name of LaPlaunt ever surfaced in that time period and place. Other names associated with the family in that area are,Nevens,Emeline and in some places the name of LaPlaunt was spelled LaPlant for whatever reason. thank you for any information that you can supply or maybe sites that I can research.

Not sure if he is a relative, but Louis LaPlant was a trapper around Ft. Pierre in the middle of the 19th century.

Hello, 12/26/18 My name is Carolyn Marie La Plaunt. My Fathers name was Anthony Eugene La Plaunt. He passed away May 28, 1996. I am at my half brothers house right now in Washington. His name is Shane Anthony La Plaunt. He recently found me in March 2018. We are searching for more relatives. Aunts, uncles, cousins, and more siblings. I meant a first cousin of Tony once her name was Lillian and she resided in Great Falls Montana. If anybody knows of her could you please contact 775 741 0654. Also if there's any information even from an ex-wife, girlfriend that may have known Anthony Eugene La Plaunt AKA little Tony. We would greatly appreciate it.

Hello, paternal grandmother's maiden name was LaPlante. Her father was Charles LaPlante; his father was Louis LaPlante; his father was Louisson LaPlante, whose father was Josef LaPlante from Quebec, Canada. Further back, the LaPlante family originated from France, and yes, they were a family of french fur traders who married native women. I am half Lakota and half French mainly. There are some bits of Scot, England, Netherlands, and Italian in my DNA, according to my Ancestry.com DNA results. I hope this helps.
