Hi, I am wondering if anyone can help me figure out a family mystery. My Great Great Grandmother was supposedly married to a Chief's son in the Black Hills, whom they called Indian Joe. We have their wedding vase from around 1910. She left when she was with child and shortly married another man after she returned back home to be near family. We were always told that my Great Grandpa was the son of the Chief's son, Indian Joe, but back in those days people did not like to talk about "scandals" so we know very little beyond that, especially since he was a mixed child. I've done some research and saw that Chief Red Shirt had a son named Joseph who would've been around the same age as my Grandma.... and married another woman the same year my Grandma married the other man. I'm wondering if he could be the father of my Great Grandfather? Thank you for your help.
