Some more info on the life of Eskiminzin : The most controversial Apache in border history www.facebook.com/wmichaelbooks/posts/eskiminzin-the-most-controversial-apache-in-border-history-part-1eskiminzin-righ/1821035964879148/It shows that Eskiminzin was again and again treated unfair, together with his people, and though he was able to live succesful later at his own farm and support his family, the greed and gossip of the white man made his life a tragic one, especially toward the end of his life, when they sent him even to prison. One year after his release he died, a broken man as it was said. He was a good leader to his people and a man of honor as it looks to me, trying to life in peace with the white eyes, but living a self supportet life in dignity. It is written that he lived much the ways of the white man on his farm, though I think he remained Apache / Nde in his heart and might have practiced Apache ways still, even when his live appeared like a white man´s to the white eyes around him. A man to respect and honor. chicheman |

Don't know the name of his wife, but Eskiminzin was one heck of a man!

the chief and his fellows at Mount Vernon, Alabama, maybe when they arrived. The mother of Cecil Haozous was certainly among the young women. I think Zhante was the second woman right to Eskiminzin and the little girl hold by the chief, I think chs was Anajohe (Anna Baylish-Logan) Attachments:

IMHO 1877 or 1878, because his wife looks like Washington Trip's photograph

Just wondering if this picture could have been taken around 1880, the wives in that picture could then be Hannah- Eskimizine - Djataize and child (I think she did have a child in 1880) and Zhante as young brides? What do you think?

It could be. About the child if he was from Djataize, he was a little boy (who would be named Roy if I remember right) born circa 1880. About Zhante in the photo I do not know.
