Throwback Thursday: Chief Red Cloud and His Wife
Happy #ThrowbackThursday from Nebraska Memories!
This week, we have a 5″ x 8″ black and white photograph of Lakota Sioux chief Red Cloud and his wife, Mary Red Cloud. This photograph was taken at the city park in Crawford, Nebraska on June 13, 1900.
This image is published by Crawford Public Library and is owned by the Crawford Historical Society and Museum. Working together, the Historical Society and Museum, and the Public Library digitized a number of images of the Crawford area from the late 1800s and early 1900s. The collection features resident portraits, local businesses, and souvenir postcards.
Check out this collection and many more on the Nebraska Memories archive.
