I am new here and helping a very close friend trace his ancestory and hoping someone can help out as I've come to a standstill on several things.
I'm researching David Kitteau (Kitto) aka Sunkawaste. I have his name on a 1883-84 Santee Normal Training School Census and on a Santee Census dated 1885 with his grandfather Kaugimdoka. The next census I have is Santee in 1887 and he is listed as a step-son of Thomas and Julia Roulliard. He signed the 1889 document dividing the Sioux Nation to Brule No. 1. Then he doesn't show up again until 1896 and he's on the Yankton Census, married to Mary White Whirlwind. On one document I have Mary's parents were Wanniyomniaka and Qinwin of Lower Brule.
I do know from an Heirship listing that he was married a total of 4 times: Itoyepetawin, Wisiha (had a daughter named Jennie Standing Buffalo), Gioa, then Mary White Whirlwind.
If anyone has any information on him, siblings, parents, or on any of his wives (as well as translations on their names), I would be very appreciative. I'm trying to figure out where he went and who his direct relatives were.
The other part of this equation is Issac Dion. I believe his father is Samuel Dion (from Pine Ridge) and I found on a US Census that his father was white and his mother was Sioux both born in Canada, but do not know their names for sure
Issac Dion married Hattie Williams who was the daughter of John Williams aka Cigawasase (Little Brave) and Paijiji (translation??). Her name is also listed as Jijiwin on the Yankton Census 1890, 1985, 1896.
Names I would love to have translated are the following:
Gioa (David Kitto's 3rd wife)
Hdokiukissyauna (Thomas Rouillard)
Itoyepetawin (David Kitto's 1st wife)
Jijiwin (Hattie Williams Dion's mother)
Kinsmanwin (Hattie Williams Dion)
Qinwin (Mary White Whirlwind's mother)
Paijiji (Hattie Williams Dion's mother)
Tamahecawin (John Williams' mother)
Tashunkamum (Isaac Dion's mother??)
Tasiunakiuyewin (Julia Roulliard)
Teuadanwin or Tewakanwin (Mary White Whirlwind)
Wanniyomniaka - does this mean white whirlwind?
Wisiha (David Kitto's 2nd wife)
Ziziwin (another listing for Hattie's mom)
Thanks so much for taking the time to help my try to fill in some missing pieces. If you want to email me privately, my email is cmathews@gwtc.net.
