In ta reference I was reading I came across this information: In 1840 on his journey up the Missouri River, Father christian Hoecken recorded 78 Baptiisms from May 30 to July 19.
He baptized 32 persons at the present site of Fort Pierre on June 13 and 14. A photostatic copy is in the archives of the south Dakota Historical Society at Pierre,SD.the list includes Louise dickson, Joseph LeCompte's 4 children, the 4 children of Antoine Zephier Reconuntre,Louise Picotte, the 2 daughters of Louis Menard, 3 children of Baptiste Dufond,, and 4 children of Olivier LeClerc. I was wondering if anyone living near or in Pierre may have occassion to go to the Archives and get a copy of the list that theywould share with us?

My god, Hermin1, you must be psychic... or is my phone tapped? (I am still in a manic paranoid state over the missing remote conspiracy) A friend of mine was telling me the very same things. I think she said she was reading it in a book. She is a great researcher, but doesnt sign on to the board, and is not so focused on the lawsuit as she is in history/genealogy in general. She told me she was reading all of this and names from a book that she had purchased at a garage sale for a quarter. now, why doesnt that happen to me? she gave me some notes on it and asked me to check for someone who could check out something she wanted to see related to it in Sioux City. hmmm... I will get my notes and get back to you. Tamara
