Is there a list of wives who were put aside as their husbands were forced to choose only one? I thought I saw a list on this forum but now I can't find it. I know there was a Davenport list. vmarier

I saw that list. I was thinking that maybe there was a similar list for Ft. Snelling. The list of the Dakota interned at Ft. Snelling only list the bands, band chief and the heads of families with the number in their families placed after the family head. The baptism list at Ft. Snelling added more names to the numbers but I was thinking that if they had a polygamy list too then we could find out more names of women at Ft. Snelling. I've been looking on historical sites but I can't find anything on this topic. It's like we were just numbers. Many family members are invisible. vmarier
