Anyone heard of Wiyukeza? I'm not having much luck with a translation and hoped someone else has heard of this place. It is hard to tell as it is handwritten, but it could be either Wiyukeza or Wiyeheza.
The baptism record also states that it is in Dakota and is where one of our relatives is listed as being born here around 1869.

I don't think so - it doesn't fall into their path of travelling. John Williams/Little Brave/Ciqawasase was born in Medicine Creek ~ 1833, first daughter was born in 1857 at Crow Creek, second daughter born in 1860 at Grand River/Standing Rock, then the last was born in Wiyukeza in 1869. They were all baptised on May 12, 1873 at St. Philips' Chapel. Any idea where that is??
Then they are on the Yankton Census from 1890-1903.

St. Phillips Chapel is in Yankton, SD if you are talking about the Episcopal Church.
