Does anyone know anything about a southern Cheyenne warrior named Wolf Feathers or Feathered Wolf? According to the tribal census of 1887 and 1895 he was either born approx. 1845 or 1849. sources: 1887 Census Cheyenne-Arapaho, Darlington OK, page 11, No. 82 through 86 archive.org/details/indiancensusroll027unit/page/n10/mode/1up1895 Census Cheyenne-Arapaho, Darlington OK, page 61, No. 1959 through 1963 archive.org/details/indiancensusroll028unit/page/n60/mode/1upHe disappears as of the 1896 census, but could have taken another name or a white man's name. In the 1895 census there are two (step-)daughters listed with him, Jane Campbell and Martha Campbell, whereas in 1902 the latter Martha Campbell was married to Whitebird, a mixed blood. There is a photograph dated 10th May 1875 showing Feathered Wolf by John K. Hillers of the U.S. Geological Survey click onto image to enlarge

I have a record of a Southern Cheyenne man known as Job Wolf Feathers (aka Job Feathers), who was born 15 October 1898, the son of Ho'neohvotonevėstse (aka Wolf Tail Feathers, aka Wolf Feathers) & Ma'evehpota'e (aka Red Leaf Woman). Job Wolf Feathers served as a Private in the U.S. Army during World War I. Later, Job Wolf Feathers married Nona Roman Nose who was born in 1895. Both Job Wolf Feathers and his wife Mrs. Nona (Roman Nose) Wolf Feathers died in different months in 1964, in Watonga, Blaine County, Oklahoma.

thank you Historian this would jive with the 1895 Census - Cheyenne & Arapaho (of Oklahoma)
Wolf Feathers, age 46 Red Leaf (wife), age 39 Jane Campbell (daughter) age 18 Martha Campbell (daughter) age 14 Job Feathers (son) age 1
I would presume that Jane and Martha Campbell are daughters of Red Leaf by a previous husband.
Fact is that I found Wolf Feathers in the 1887 census, and there his wife was Bear Woman (age 38) children" Nanmi, daughter, age 12 Little Woman, daughter, age 12 Yellow Nose, brother-in-law, age 32
