Here is where I ended up on my first attempt at finding the old Amiotte ranch. Scott Lake is right near the Nebraska border and I figure about 5 miles or so as the crow flies from where the ranch was actually located.

My cousin the distinguished Arthur Amiotte. Arthur is a world renowned Lakota Artist and Historian. He is a consultant to The Buffalo Bill Museum in Cody Wyoming and The Smithsonian Museum in Washington D.C. He was raised mostly in the Standing Bear Family but he is the one who helped me when I first reached out to him about our Family. He welcomed me into his home and gave me our genealological documents as well as many pictures of our family. I am very grateful to him.

ARTHUR AMIOTTE AND MYSELF
My Father Paul Craig, son of Lena Amiotte Craig. Here he is being gifted his Cannupa and bag shortly before his passing.
Sadly, there are no pictures of Grandma Lena. She was very reclusive, quiet and never really trusted any of the modern technology so I am not that surprised that there are no photos.
