Fighting Wolf Chronicles

Within the past year I found some papers full of stories that I had written years ago especially when discovered who may be our ancestor. I will post short or long clips here from time to time and they might not always be in chronological order. If they concern Fighting Wolf or any of the people he was with I will label it as Fighting Wolf Chronicles. If it's stories other than Fighting Wolf I will label it as Stories of the people.
   Fighting Wolf was the second son of a holy man called White Cloud. He had an older brother and a younger sister and also made quite an interesting history for himself. It sure would be interesting to find out if anyone other than myself knows of him (yes you Tawnee) but this is where we start.

   September 12th 1868 was a day that changed many peoples lives forever starting with the cost of two bullets and two warriors lives. The chain of events that followed and the pursuit of a band of over 200 Oglala for over twenty two years afterward until the massacre at wounded knee in 1890 is a story that you will not find in any history book anywhere.

More to come later.
