Crow King/Cournoyers of Sioux County

Surnames: Crow King, Cournoyer
I'm a writer looking for burial records and/or a grave site for a Hunkpapa Lakota chief and member of the Standing Rock Indian Police named Joachim Crow King (Kangi Yatapi), who died near Ft. Yates in Sioux County, ND on April 5, 1884. He was supposedly buried at the Catholic Indian Cemetery at Ft. Yates (St. Peters?). His daughter, Emma Crowking, married a man named Paul Cournoyer, and eventually settled in Armour, SD, where she died in 1908. The Cournoyers had a child named Christie who died in infancy, and is also buried somewhere at Ft. Yates. Does anyone have information on these people that they would be willing to share? My research is at a standstill.

Many thanks.

Hi Bill,

Did you ever complete your book on the Crow King/Cournoyer family? My Great, Great, Great Grandfather is Bruno Cournoyer and I do have pitures of him.
