I have finally found out where my great grandfather (Samuel "Bobdu" Sully) and my great grandmother (Lucy Saul) are resting in peace. Little did I know that it was right here in our own cemetery in Greenwood, SD. Great Grandpa Sam is buried in front of grampa Gilbert and Great Grandma Lucy is buried beside him. I am very glad to have found out this information. My aunt discovered this and informed the rest of us. You don't know how good this makes me feel. Also; i am proud of my Santee blood from both of my grandparents and father. What a combination, Yankton/Santee. We Yanktons have also received $$$$$ from Shakopee which have been used to benefit our children. I took offense a bit to some of the statements made on the other website regarding Sioux Tribes that have received assistance from Shakopee and "owning" interest in Sioux Tribes in South Dakota. Any comments??
