Hello, I have been searching for information on Zephier and Alex sr. I'am interested on finding the family tree. My mother is a decendant from them thru James (son of Alex). Her grandmother was Clara. I have all my family info except on the correct children names for Zephier and Alex. Also i found a Frank Rencountre..i thought he was Zephier's son..he shows up on the 1886 census for lower brule. Any information would be helpful. Thanks

Thanks for the info. Yes I do have the census roll you uploaded but there is one for 1886 that lists Alex , zedo, Dave, Finette and John Recountre. In researching I have found sites that list many children for Alex. I had the ones you listed til I found the other sites then I was not sure. ... I know that Antoine Zephyr recountre had Alex, David and Finette (Lillian) but the census show a John. (abt 1852) There's an article from "Diplomats in Buckskins". They talk of John Richard of Sioux and French ancestry served as an interpreter to the Red Cloud delegation of 1870. So is he a brother to Alex? No sites list a John. The article says "he killed a soldier in a drunken shooting spree at Fort Fetterman and later he died at the hands of his Sioux relative in a similar fracas." I'am looking up the information so I may do a family tree for my children, nieces and nephew. My mother passed away in 2009 and my father just last month. With my father's passing and hearing Ancestry having free census weekend, it gave me something think about and do. (I took care of my father in my home) My mother was adopted out when she was small and found her family in SD when her youngest sibiling (also adopted out) found her. We have stayed in contac with the family in SD but not enough where I feel comfortable to ask about our family info. So thank you for the information and let me know any information on John. Thanks again.

mel63: You can attach it to an email and mail it to me at dakounas@yahoo.com and i will upload it for you. mel63: I don't have a John Recountre/Zephier in any of my records on the family of Antoine. when you use ancestry, plug in John's name, You canestimate his birth year from the age in that 1886Census you mentioned. Also plug in that helived in South Dakota.

I made an error on my post. James was not listed on the 1886 census with Alex but on the 1886 census with Ben Bear and Ida. I will upload this census to you. If you have the Antoine Zephyr familiy, is there a tree i may download? Thanks for all help.
