Strong Left Hand Cheyenne

[ann]

I thought at one time I saw where Dietmar?? had placed some pictures of the Cheyenne's that were held in Kansas waiting for trial but I can't find that thread anywhere.  I have a  curiosity about Red Sleeve Panther, you can only find one picture taken of him in 1879.  You can  find no date of birth nor date of death.  But you can find a reasonable amount of information on him other than that.  However, I have found out what I think may be correct--his father was Strong Left Hand who took part in the Battle of Little Big Horn. Strong Left Hand had two sons, William Yellow Robe and Red Sleeve Panther and six daughters,which I won't name here.  William Yellow Robe had a son, Hugh Walks Along and he had a son Joseph Walks Along.  My question is: is there more than one Strong Left Hand that was a Cheyenne?  If I  remember the pictures correctly I thought the man Strong Left Hand looked very young to have a son as old as William Yellow Robe that witnessed the Battle of Little Big Horn. Again if I remember the pictures correctly at the end was a picture of Strong Left Hand and his family in 1890?? To me the date and ages of what the children look to be does not quit line up in my mind at being the same man.   Does anyone have any comments on this?  Thanks

hi Ann
he was not so young , he was a warrior society chief in 1876 (from wooden leg book ), he could have a 10-12 years old son at that time

Historian;
I am sorry, I do not see Strong Lift Hand in the picture.  All I see is an older woman standing on the porch (it is interesting what it says about her) and a woman in the doorway.
