Thanks for all you help...now another question. We found that "Flute" is a previous married name for Nancy, so what is her maiden name, Indian name and who were her parents? A lot of work here, but the information would be most valuable and appreciated.

No, that is not the Nancy Flute I'm looking for. She would have been born early 1800's. Her son Phillip was born around 1849. Thanks anyway!

If she was married to Jonah flute then who is john flute's mother? I had gotten information that she was but then I got information that a siyowahdewin was his mother. If anyone can help please do so. oh not sure if spelling is correct.

valari: the information I have is that siyowahdewin was her mother.
I would suggest that you contact the Flandreau Tribal office by mail and ask them.
correction: I meant to say that siyowahdewin was John Flute's mother.I am sorry for the goof.

The family tree I received from them has Wamduskawin as his mother. Confusing. I'm on the hunt again though!!
Keep in mind that this is the same tree that has Charles Hillers as Winnie Hillers father. So I am not putting too much thought into this right now. I will share whatever I find with you hermin1.

I thought nancy Wamduska win was his mom too. then I read the book about the history of the Dakota prebyterian Ministry, and in Rev.John Flute's entry Siyowahdewin(sp)was listed as his mother.
