Can anyone provide information on a Bear Shield who lived at Wounded Knee?
Many thanks in advance.

There was a Bear Shield (aka Jacob Bear Shield) who was born in 1850, and he married White Buffalo Cow Comes Out. They had at least four children known as Charles Bear Shield b. 1875; William Bear Shield b. 1880; Nellie Bear Shield b. 1882; and John Bear Shield b. 1884. Jacob Bear Shield died in 1927, and was buried in the Presbyterian Cemetery within Wounded Knee District, in Oglala Lakota County, on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.
