Can someone please help me? I am having a hard time finding out what Mini Kawoja means. My grandmother's name was Julia Mini Kawoja and she married Charles (Campbell) Cordier. At first, all the research that we ran into showed Charles Cordier but now we found a Baptismal on their daughter Cecelia Campbell. Can someone please help me? Also if you know anything about these people. Thank You My email address is arte_810@yahoo.com

depending on how the word is mispelled the meaning would change.
Mni means water, river, stream.....
kawaja means to stick to somthing that you are working on that is really hard to do. kinda like fortitude.
i imagine that the name would be referencing maybe the crossing a river that was difficult.
Mnikoju, is one of the many ways that this word has been written in history. means planters my the stream or river. they were a lakota band that was placed on the Cheyenne River reservation.
I hope this has helped.
