Redhorse--Sunktankasa, or Sunktankaduta; I would guess the 2nd one.
Big Twin Women--Cekpatankawin
Also, do you know when they were born? Where they were born? Which tribe they come from? English names? Any family names? Anything else that you know, please share with us. It helps us in tracking more information on your family.

Wapahaduta, I have a RedHorse in my lineage. He was married to Cankumazawin(IronRoadwoman). They are both buried at Kangipaha(CrowHill) on the SpiritLake Resevation. I was told by a relative there that our RedHorse carried the name of his Father. So what year or do you know approximately what year your RedHorse died.

You might try first looking at the Annuity rolls for Minnesota prior to the 1862 Uprising, and see if he or his father are listed. I don't see his father listed among those tried and/or imprisoned after the Uprising.
I echo Jackie, in our need for vital data. Names alone do not help us in our search.
jackie: could his name alsobe translated as Big Red Horse?

it could hermin, if there is documentation of it anywhere. if i remember correctly the translation for horse is large dog, sunk for dog and tanka for large; i believe this is how the people translated the name for horse. if i am wrong someone let me know.
