On page 5, I find my great-great-grandmother and my great-grandmother: No. 150 Madeline Rocque, an 87 year old Full-Blood female living in Wabasha, Minn. [She is incorrectly listed as a Full-Blood, her father being a Scottish-Canadian fur trader and her mother a Mdewakanton woman of Red Wing's band.]
No. 154 Josephine Abersold (nee Rocque), a 50 year old Mixed-Blood female living in Wabasha, Minn. [She is correctly listed as a Mixed-Blood, both her parents being Half-Breeds and the Half-Breed designation not being utulized in this census.]
My grandfather August Ebersold should have been listed as a Mixed-Blood like his brother and sisters William, Maggie, Leno[ra] & Mary, Nos. 155-158. [The next year, the 1900 federal census for Alma, Buffalo Co., Wisc. shows him living in his parents house along with his brother and sisters William, Maggie, Lenora & Mary. It is therefore possible that his mother, brother and sisters should not have been listed on this March 15/17, 1899 “Census of Medawakanton Sioux of Minnesota."] |
