    1. Dakota/Sioux/Santee Indians (Sisseton - Wapeton Tribe) MN, SD, ND, NE ?
    2. Hi List Members, Looking for census or any info on a Sisseton/Wahpeton Indian, Christian name Joseph Samuel, Indian name unknown. In 1914 my great-great grandmother Rosalie M. Laramie/McCoy and her sister Josephine Laramie/Seaman received a letter of being the only heirs to Joseph Samuel, Santee Indian. The letter says Joseph Samuel is their cousin. According to records the letter went through three offices; 1.Winnebago Indian Agency, Nebraska 2.Santee Indian School, Nebraska and 3.Pipestone Indian School, MN. Rosalie`s mother (Tateduta/ MaryRedIron/ RedWind) was from Chief Mazasha`s/ Red Iron`s tribe, that was in southern MN, they grew up near Traverse Des Sioux/ St. Peter, MN. So I don`t know if Joseph Samuel was at a reservation in Nebraska, Sisseton SD, Wahpeton ND, Pipestone Mn, or where he was. I don`t know who his parents were, his b.?, or his d.? I couldn`t find him on the 1880 census, sorry not a lot to go on. Any ideas or help appreciated. thanks Patrick
