Crazy Horse's Mother

[lincoln]

On this forum someone asked from where Crazy Horse got his curly hair:

See the photograph published as Ta-sina Hlahla Win "Rattling Blanket Woman" (1814 - 1844) - at site
‘https://www.geni.com/people/Ta-sina-Hlahla-Win-Rattling-Blanket-Woman’.
The lady looks a bit older than thirty years, perhaps life was hard. But, what I notice about her is that she does not have the physical features of a native american in build or looks, more a european white lady with fine (not course) fair hair, despite her smart (photographer’s?) regalia. Photo was updated in 2022.

Sorry, can't access it, but is it this one?



She looks about 40+ years too old and even if not, I'd question who was floating around the plains with a camera earlier than 1844?

...and I suspect she maybe Winnebago or Omaha.
