Rick; Are you sure it was Moses Archambeau and not Moses Greybuffalo. I don't have Lucy Pretty feather ever married to MOses Archambeau unless you are talking about another relative with the same name. Moses was married to Julia Veo, Sophie covell Night and then Minnie Packard before his death. The Archambeau's are a huge clan. I will look again through my papers for the pretty feather name. stephanie

Stephanie, your right. I first got that from a probate.Matilda Kills Plenty's testemony stated that Lucy went by Black Owl but that Moses was her dad. I just got out the family tree that I got from the tribe and it does'nt say one way or the other.The Baptism that I got from St.Pauls in Marty lists her father as George Black Owl. I wonder if a person could DNA map a whole family tree?

Yes < I believe you can DNA Map a family tree. but it would be quite expensive to do so. correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Moses also have a son Moses?

Hermin1, was'nt it a decendent of Thomas Jefferson who proved they were a decendent by matching their DNA to a known decendent?

Rick; My great grandfather moses had only three sons; Guy, Henry and Victor Foch. Victor died as a teenager from T.B. My Uncle Guy died while coming home from WWII in New Mexico. MY Uncle Henry died in 1980. The rest were all girls. Two girls from his first wife, Angelic Frazier and Eveyln. The other girls from my grandma Sophie, Helen (never married), Winifred and Dell Marie. At present, questioning a son, Harrison Percy Archambeau from Minnie Packard. That's about it. stephanie

Hi, There were two Moses Archambeau, one had the name of GreyBuffalo. Our Moses Archambeau was born 1870 and his first wife was Julia Veo, next was my grandmother Sophie Covell, Defond, Archambeau born 1874 or 1875 and then comes Minnie LittleOwl, Packard, Archambeau, WhiteShirt. He married Minnie in 1931. We are related to Moses (GreyBuffalo) Archambeau, in this lineage is a sister of my great grandfather Lizziam Archambeau.
Anyway I don't consider Harrison Percy Archambeau as my Uncle. I feel Minnie was very deceptive and she had the live birth certificate made up after my grandfather Moses Archambeau died. I never heard any of my family talk about him. Harrison has trust land on the Yankton rez and on the lower brule.

indianwoman: In case you came late in the discussion, that so called birth certificate is not valid. From what I can determine as have others, harrison Percy archambeau doesn't exist except on paper.

Thanks Hermin; I sumbitted my appeal regarding the paternity of Harrison Percy Archambeau well before the March 15th deadline and Probate has not contacted me yet... Wonder what they think of the mysterious birth certificate? Maybe my appeal made some sense...we shall see. stephanie

Just an update from two years ago. The probate judge upheld a birth certificate that was filed 25 years later although the state of South Dakota does not recognize it to be valid. As usual, BIA made their own rules. You can't win with those people.

Try calling Karen Archambeau, Treasurer of the Yankton Sioux Tribal Council. Her father, Percy Archambeau, was elected the 2nd Tribal Chair, of the Yankton Sioux in 1963, my grandfather, Clement Smith being the first elected in 1930.

Found out that harrison percy archambeau is indeed the son of my great grandfather, Moses Archambeau and Minnie Packard. Minnie lied about the paternity and then turned around and came up with a 25 year delayed birth certificate at the time of Moses death. Moses admits that he is his son on a document posted by Jimmy. Thanks anyway people. By the way, Percy, tribal chair of Yankton was a cousin. stephanie
