What a story, I am sure I could of written a bunch more on his line if I would do a few more weeks of research into it. I found land records ad tribal records and a few videos on his grandfather.
He was known as Yellow Bird he was murdered him, cut off his ears, hands and feet and scalped him.
Very sad story
