I wrote a biography of His Own Thunder - Wakinyantawa AKA Caska.
he was Little Crow's Akicita Itancan.
I would like to add to the biography his modern descendants.
Can anyone help.

Yesterday I requested information on the family tree of His Own Thunder.
Here are a few more items to jar your memories:
His wife w
as Tati (Her Lodge) or Lucy Chaska
His two children are:
Fanny and Philip Chaska.
Fannie married Louis Walker and had at least one child Ernest Walker.
Thank you forr your time.
Philip perhaps never married.

in my files I have that Chaska and Lucy also had another daughter named winona. I haven't been able to find anything on her.
their Daughter Fanny married Louis Walker andthey had alexander ,Benjamine, tobias, and anna walker.
alexander was married to Eliza ?(don't know her surname. they had the following children: Sybil, Thelma,Louis, Benjamin,Adelia, Donald, Vernice,,Philip, and Rachel( not in birth order).
Philip Chaska married a woman named Louise ?(don't know her miaden name). they had a son gideon and on 12 Nov. 1891 Indian Census for birch cooley,MN, I found a Baby Nestman age 1 yr, Paul Dow age 21, and Minnie Dow age11. I don't know how they are related to Philip .I
Anna Walker, I found living with her brother Alex and his wife and their childre, and her mother Fannie .On the 1939 birch cooley ,Minn, Indian Census ana was 21 yrs old, and living alone.
I was unable to find anything on Tobias and Benjamin after 1880, and nothing on Benjamin, the other two children of Fanny and Louis Walker.
As for chaska himself, the censuses and annuity rolls for te bands in Minnesota prior to 1862, the heads of households are listed ,plus the # of men, #of children, and # of women only.
