QUESTION: Who is this indian, is he Lakota?
does anyone know who this is? He kind of looks like a lakota chief, but it’s hard to tell…
One person suggested to me that it is “Crazy in the Lodge” who was a ‘head soldier’ under Spotted Tail and that this photo was taken by a man named Morrow, but he was not sure.
Another has told me they belive this to be a photo of Crazy Horse…. But I have my doubts.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?

| “ Barbara Buttes is an anthropologist who compiled all the genealogical records and is also Chief of the Indians who have been left out of the tribe” |
| Quote: |
| Sheldon Wolfchild is Chief of Minnesota’s Lower Sioux Indians |
I keep hearing about MN. Sioux Chiefs and presidents…
I am confused as to who is really Chief and of which tribes they are the chief of. Can anyone offer a comment on this?
Also, what is the difference between Chief and President? Who holds more authority? Thanks.

QUESTION: Who is this Indian?
click photo
Who is this Native American Man wearing the 1871 Grant Peace Medal?
There are actualy three photos with three different Indians who are wearing the same headdress and are identified as Lakota.All of the photos that were apparently taken in the same studio
One of the photos can be positivley identified as “Red Cloud”.
These three photos were donated to the Denver Public Library by Louise Stegner. Does anyone know who she was or her connection to the photographer or Indians?
SIDE NOTE:
Louisa Stegner taught in the Omaha Public Schools for 29 years and then operated a bookstore in Omaha, Nebraska. She collected and sold Americana and did some writing of her own. The Denver Public Library became the receipient of many of her photographs, including a large number of the original glass plate negatives of the Wounded Knee photographs.

QUESTION: ‘loyal mdetawakans’ - The other side of the story…
Does anyone on the reservations of Shakopee, prarie island, and red wing, or in these areas about the lawsuit going on between the ‘loyal mdetawakans’? what is really going on? I know someone who is involved with the lawsuit and am kinda ambiguous on the whole thing. I would like to know the story on the other side, the people who live on the rezs in question.
