Post by Dietmar on Jan 27, 2013 at 11:42pmCrow Dog I´d
like to start a thread about Crow Dog, who is well known for his role
in the killing of Sicangu Chief Spotted Tail. Crow Dog was a leader in
the Brule Orphan Band, the Wablenicha. He was related to other leading
Orphan clans like the Iron Shells. Most of what I know about Crow Dog is from “Crow Dog – Four generations of Sioux Medicine Men” by Leonard Crow Dog & Richard Erdoes, Harper&Collins, 1995, a book I highly recommend: “Old
man Crow Dog, the first of that name, was a buffalo hunter. He knew the
ways of the buffalo and of the animals in the forest. He was born in
1836 and died in 1912. A government paper says he was born earlier, in
1832. Maybe so. Before he took the name Crow Dog he had six other names.
One of them was Mato Sicha, Bad Bear. “ (page 11) According to Leonard, Crow Dog took the name Kangi Shunka Manitou
after his first fight with enemies. It means Crow Coyote, not Crow Dog,
but an interpreter translated it wrongly and the name stuck. Later
at the reservation a census taker gave him the Christian name Jerome, so
he´s also known as Jerome Crow Dog in official records. Leonard writes that Crow Dog had two wives. One was Catches Her. A second wife was called Jumping Elk, a Blackfoot woman. His
genealogy remains fragmentary. There´s no mention of Crow Dogs parents.
He had two brothers, Brave Bull and a half-brother named Yellow Horse.
His cousins include Spotted Tail. Crow Dog was a nephew of Conquering Bear, the famous Wahazha leader killed in 1854. Do we know anything more about him? Here are some portraits of Crow Dog:  Crow Dog in Washington 1875 (edited from a delegation group poto)  Crow Dog 1891  Crow Dog by John A. Anderson  Crow Dog by John A. Anderson  Crow Dog & his wife Catches Her (according to Leonard Crow Dog)  Crow Dog 1907 by Edward Curtis  Crow Dog 1898  Crow Dog´s family  Two Strikes, High Hawk and Crow Dog 1891

Post by kingsleybray on Jan 28, 2013 at 12:17pmI have a letter from John Colhoff, or White
Man Stands in Sight, the Pine Ridge interpreter, dated Dec. 31, 1949, to
my late friend Joseph Balmer, of Zurich, Switzerland, which mentions
some of Crow Dog's family connections.
"Kangi Sunka, Crow Dog was
the chief who shot and killed Spotted Tail at Rosebud Agency, South
Dakota, in August 1881 . . . He was an Oglala but was married to a
Rosebud woman, he was related to the famous U.S. [Army] scout Yellow
Horse of Herrick, S.D. The Red Willows of Wanbli, S.D. As you know,
Yellow Horse was married to one of Red Cloud's daughters [his] No. 1
wife. [Yellow Horse's] No. 2 wife was also Oglala woman, No. 3 was a
Rosebud woman. Yellow Bear, Mato gi, the chief of the Spleen band,
killed by John Richards, or Reshaw on the North Platte [in 1872] was
also a cousin of Crow Dog."
John Colhoff told anthropologist
William K. Powers that the Red Willow band at Pine Ridge was "originally
a part of the Spleen band."
So Crow Dog was bon an Oglala,
according to Colhoff, with connections to the Spleen band of that tribe.
He was related as a "nephew" to Scattering Bear, of the Brule Wazhazha
band. Since Scattering Bear and Spotted Tail were related, perhaps as
cousins, Crow Dog may have been 'nephew' to Spotted Tail as well. An
interesting dynamic. He was also related to the Iron Shell family.
Victor Douville told me that Crow Dog and Iron Shell were related to
each other as cousins or brothers-in-law, he wasn't sure which.
So-o-o-o,
while inviting more feedback from relatives, it looks like one of Crow
Dog's parents was an Oglala of the Spleen band, possibly a sibling of
the chief Black Hawk ('father' to Yellow Bear); and his other parent was
a Brule (Wazhazha?), a sibling/cousin to Scattering Bear. Born c.
1832, he lived in adulthood in the Brule Orphan band of chief Iron
Shell, perhaps reflecting his marriage. By 1875 he was recognized as one
of the head akichita in the Upper Brule tribe.

Post by kingsleybray on Jan 28, 2013 at 12:51pmHaha. Antoine Bordeaux told Walter Camp (in
Camp Papers, University of Indiana, microfilm ed.) that Iron Shell's
"brothers" were Dog Hawk, Crow Dog, Bell Snake, Moccasin Face, and Brave
Bull.
Dog Hawk was the headman of another extended family group within the Orphan band.
Bell Snake and Moccasin Face: no more information known to me.
Crow Dog and Brave Bull - noted as brothers by Dietmar above from family information.
What
I would say is that Crow Dog and Brave Bull were unlikely to have been
full brothers - in the European sense - to Iron Shell. They were more
likely to be classificatory brothers, for instance sons of Iron Shell's
father's brother or his mother's sister. But this would fit Victor
Douville's suggestion of a 'cousin' (European sense) connection btw Crow
Dog and Iron Shell.

Post by grahamew on Jan 28, 2013 at 8:30pmThe artist DeCost Smith, seeing Crow Dog in
1884, noted he was an affable man who tried to use a few English words
in his conversation. He "habitually wore a six-shooter on his right
hip... There was nothing Indian about his dress, which consisted of a
soft black hat, black shirt and dark trousers tucked into high-heeled
cowboy boots... He had a thin beard, and his hair which hing loose just
below his ears was curly, an unusual thing in an Indian." He goes
on to say that when he met him again, some 18 years later, he wore his
hair "long in the Indian fashion... His face was beardless; he wore
blanket, leggings and moccasins, and he did not attempt any English.  Another photo - taken at the same time as the last one Dietmar posted above.

Post by Dietmar on Jan 29, 2013 at 11:12pmIn Leonard Crow Dog´s book it is stated that
Henry CD´s great-grandfather on his mother´s side was Nahca Cica,
Little Chief. If I got it right he then was the father of Crow Dog´s
wife, possibly Catches Her. Was there a Little Chief in the Iron Shell family? More portraits of Crow Dog:  Crow Dog in 1894 (edited from a group photo)  Buffalo Bill & Crow Dog 1891 (edited from a group photo)

Notes for Crow Dog
Crow Dog Kangi Sunka- Crow Coyote Kangi Shunka Manitou-Bad Bear Mato Sicha-
1833-1910.
Crow Dog was present when CRAZY HORSE was killed at Fort Robinson,
Nebraska, in 1877, he helped prevent a retaliatory attack on U.S. Army
soldiers at the fort. He was police chief at the Rosebud Reservation in
1879-1880, during which time he assassinated SPOTTED TAIL. Crow Dog was
born at Horse Stealing Creek, Montana Territory, into a family of
esteemed warriors. Before submitting to reservation life, he made his
reputation in battle. As the Sioux were confined on reservations
following the CUSTER battle at the Little Bighorn, dissension arose
among some of their leaders. On one occasion, Spotted Tail was accused
by RED CLOUD of pocketing the proceeds from a sale of tribal land. Crow
Dog heard rumors that Spotted Tail was selling Lakota land to the
railroads, building himself an enormous white-styled mansion with
proceeds. In mid-July 1880, Spotted Tail was called before the general
council by Crow Dog's White Horse Group, where he denied the charges.
The council voted to retain him as head chief, but Crow Dog continued to
assert the chief's complicity in various crimes against the people.
Crow Dog carried out his own death sentence on Spotted Tail on August 5,
1881. Blood money was paid in traditional BRULE fashion for the crime.
Crow Dog was also convicted of murder in a Dakota Territory court; he
was later freed on order of the U.S. Supreme Court, which ruled that the
territorial government had no jurisdiction over the crime. Later, Crow
Dog was one of the leaders in popularizing WOVOKA's Ghost Dance among
the Lakota. Crow Dog adopted the religion from SHORT BULL. Crow Dog
vociferously opposed U.S. Army occupation of South Dakota Indian
reservations and was one of the last holdouts after the massacre of BIG
Foot¿s people at the Wounded Knee during December 1890. Crow Dog spent
the last years of his life in relative peace on the Rosebud Sioux
Reservation in South Dakota.
The nephew of Brave Bear, chief of the Lakota Wazhazha (Orphan Band), and cousin of Iron Shell (pg 113To Kill An Eagle)
Consequently,
Crow Dog was told by his cousin, Black Crow, that he had to live
separately from the tribe for the rest of his days and that the next
four generations of his family also would be ostracized.

Bear fought with the leading chiefs of the Plains against subjugation
until the 1870s; after that, he favored peace with the whites and became
something of a celebrity along the East Coast. In his later years,
Hollow Horn Bear attended several official functions as a Native
representative, including two inaugural parades. His likeness appeared
on a fourteen-cent stamp as well as on a five-dollar bill._Born in
Sheridan Country, Nebraska, a son of Chief Iron Shell, Hollow Horn Bear
earned his early fame as a warrior, he raided the Pawnees at first then
aided other Sioux leaders in harassing forts along the Bozeman Trail,
between 1866 and 1868, when the Treaty of Fort Laramie was signed.
During this time, he gained fame as the chief who defeated Lieutenant
William Fetterman. Hollow Horn Bear was appointed as head of Indian
police at the Rosebud Agency, South Dakota; in this role, he arrested
Crow Dog for the murder of Spotted Tail. Hollow Horn Bear also became
involved in treaty negotiations because of his oratorical abilities._In
1905, Hollow Horn Bear was invited to take part in the inauguration of
President Theodore Roosevelt. In 1913, he led a group of Indians to the
presidential inauguration parade for Woodrow Wilson. On that visit,
Hollow Horn Bear caught pneumonia and died.
Born 1850. First
war-party at twelve against Pawnee. At nineteen he took the pipe and led
a party, which killed a number of Pawnee wood-haulers. Struck a first
coup-"kill right"-in that battle. After that his father, Iron Shell,
desired him to take that name, but he said that he would take his
grandfather's name instead, and make the name Hollow Horn Bear good.
During his career as a warrior, he counted coup many times and
participated in twenty-three fights with Pawnee, Omaha, Ponca, Ute,
Arikara, and United States troops. He was present at the Custer fight.

Post by kingsleybray on Jan 31, 2013 at 1:09pmThanks, LaDeane. An amazing spread of data.
Just one correction, the Brave Bear who married Red Cloud's sister and
was the father of George Sword and others - he is not the same man as

Post by miller7513 on Feb 3, 2013 at 2:36pmKingsley concerning Brave Bear;
Take this into consideration-Chief Red Cloud’s parents died ABT 1825-6.
Yellow Lodge was the last born 1824-5
Big Spider b 1812 father of Black Buffalo Woman and Red Feather
Roaring Cloud b 1815
Brings Spotted b ABT 1817 married Stabber
Pretty
White Ears b 1819-20 married an unknown and was recorded in census 30
Jun 1886 Pine Ridge pg 116 mother of Dirt Kettle and her mother was
Medicine Face wife of Lone Man
Red Cedar b 1822 married first Marcellin St. Vrain 2nd William Bransford
After his parents died, his “sisters” (that would be his aunts, Smoke Chief’s sisters-Takola win and Midday Sun ) raised him
THEREFORE any children would have to be born on or before 1810
The Brave Bear you talk about was born 1832-38 (The Brave Bear who married Red Cloud's sister was born before 1810)

Post by kingsleybray on Feb 3, 2013 at 3:57pmHi La Deane,
my point was that Brave
Bear the father of George Sword (bn 1847) and his brothers was a Bad
Face Oglala, married to a 'sister' of Red Cloud's. You correctly
identify those children in your post. George Sword gave his father's
Lakota name as Mato Kagishni Inyanke, which literally translates Bear
Runs Without Fear - loosely, Brave Bear. Indeed he was born early in the
19th century. Afraid of Bear (born 1843), another of his sons, told JR
Walker that his father was born about the Year the Good White Man Came, a
winter count year matching about 1802-03.
This "Brave Bear",
the brother-in-law of Red Cloud, who died on April the first, 1874,
according to George Sword, was a different man from the Wazhazha leader
whose Lakota name was Mato Wayuhi. His name is conventionally translated
as Conquering Bear or Brave Bear, but the verb -yuhi means 'scattering'
as e.g. a bear scattering earth when it digs up roots. That's why I
translate that name as Scattering Bear. It also saves on confusion with
other people with similar names.
Scattering Bear was the leader
selected as the Teton head chief by the treaty commission at Horse Creek
in 1851, and who was killed by Grattan's troops in 1854. He too must
have been born early in the 19th c. About 1805-1810 seems the right
frame to me. So he and Brave Bear were near contemporaries, but they
were two different men. It was the latter, the Oglala Brave Bear who had
the marriage connection to Red Cloud's sister.
I know there was
an Oglala called Brave Bear born in the 1830s. I am unsure of his
family background, and would appreciate any help in identifying his
parentage.

Post by clarence on Jun 9, 2016 at 12:14pmGood morning,
looking at the 1891 Crow
Dog pictures, credited to Grabill or Moreledge, where he's together with
Two Strike and another man identified as High Hawk, I would say,
comparing these pictures with the noted 1872 Gardner series, that this
man is instead Gassy.
Best regards
Clarence

Post by grahamew on Jun 9, 2016 at 7:29pmDeCost Smith description of Crow Dog, probably 1884: There
was nothing Indian about his dress, which consisted of a soft black
hat, black shirt and dark trousers tucked into high-heeled cowboy boots
which fitted his feet admirably. He had a thin beard, and his hair which
hung loose to just below his ears was curly, an unusual thing in an
Indian. He notes that when he met him again, 18 years later, his
hair was long, his face was beardless and he wore blanket, leggings and
moccasins. I came across this illustration in the James Taylor
collection. I wonder if it's the work of Smith, since it's clearly a
younger man than in the Wounded Knee photos and his hair and beard match
the description?  I
have to admit, I wouldn't have thought that by 1884, dress of hat and
trousers was that uncommon on the reservation, Boots, yes. It
was, however, next to this picture, which I think says captain of Indian
Police. To me, it looks like Spotted Tail in a hat (which wasn't there
in the original photo) and Smith arrived out west three years after he'd
been shot:
