I recall seeing, somewhere online, records of indigenous scouts who served with the US Army and who were present with the army during the Wounded Knee Massacre. If I recall correctly, there were records of those scouts which listed their names and etc. I did some searches here but couldn't find those records specifically, so I may have seen those records on another online site long ago. I've seen the online image of "Captain Taylor and 70 Indian scouts. It was created in 1891 by Grabill ... " and I've assumed that those were the scouts. If I recall correctly those indigenous scouts were Dakhóta. Were any of them Lakȟóta?
Does anyone know where I can find those specific records? Thank you for your attention.

[John] Shangrau went on a trot toward the cannon which were right close to the top of the hill. An Indian followed him, but was soon shot down before he reached John who was wondering that the Indian would do. When John got up to the hill he met a lieutent who said to John, "Scout, we've got our revenge now." And John said, "What revenge?" "Why, don't you know, the Custer massacre?" John said: "Look here, Lieutenant, Custer had all the guns to protect himself with, but they massacred him; and here you take all the guns away from them and then massacre them; you ought to be ashamed of yourself for saying such a thing!" -- Eli Seavey Ricker Voices of the American West: The Indian Interviews of Eli S ..., Volume 1 by Eli Seavey Ricker= books.google.com/books?id=jF1qr6g4SFQC&pg=PA262&lpg=PA262&dq=eli+ricker+john+shangrau+revenge&source=bl&ots=KPYVDn4vDd&sig=2rriWlwV9pemJyTVu1qm3TE7Ep0&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjKxsHCru3YAhUM_mMKHUSCAX4Q6AEIKTAA#v=onepage&q=eli%20ricker%20john%20shangrau%20revenge&f=false |

Both Shangrau brother, Louis and John, were with Crook's Expedition to the Power River in March of 1876.
