Benjamin A D Young (Dyomme, Dyonne, Dionne) B. August 1814

I am trying to research who his parents were.  He married Harriet Campbell about 1842.  He died at Santee Agency about 1899.  I have an obit that list an uncle who raised him as his mother (sioux) died when he was 5 months old and his father was a fur trapper.  

His uncle is listed as Henry Aungie in the obit.  I can find a Henry Ange or Henry Onji on many census roles.  Today I found on a 1837 allotment the name of Henry Onji just above that of Benjamin Dyonne.  If this Henry Ange is indeed his uncle..what I can trace leads me to believe Benjamins mother was one of Augustin Ange dit St Onge LeFevre and Pelagie Wapashaw's daughters.  They had a son name Henry and he married Mary Dickson.  There is a Mary Onji listed as Henry's wife on this document.

Does anyone know where I can find information on the daughters of Augustin Ange and Pelagie Wapashaw...I believe their names were Josephine and Pelagie.  Once site also lists a Marguerite but I am not sure about that one.

Any information would be great.

By the way, Benjamin AD Young is my great great great grandfather - he and Harriet Campbell had a daughter -  Emily Young (my great great grandmother) she married George R Wormwood - they had Harriet Jane Wormwood (my great grandmother) she married William Sandtrock - they had Grace Elizabeth Sandtrock (my grandmother) who married Robert E Chidester - they had George R Chidester (my dad).

Any information would be helpful.

Thanks
