Lakota Chief Sleepy Eye needs to be added

Question

This individual's father needs a profile, however I am unsure of how the Native American project formatting works.

Some pages for resources:

*https://www.hmdb.org/m.asp?m=67658

*"Esh-Tah-Hum-Leah or the Sleepy Eye. A Sioux Chief," painted by Charles Bird King (1785-1862), https://www.cartermuseum.org/collection/esh-tah-hum-leah-or-sleepy-eye-sioux-chief-1975648

*Schaefer, Francis J, (1869-1943), "Golden jubilee of St. Mary's parish, Sleepy Eye, Minnesota, 1926 : memorial book," (1926) https://archive.org/details/goldenjubileeofs00unse/page/51/mode/1up?q=Ishtakhaba, pg 51

Answer 1

Please find some primary/contemporaneous sources for this person before creating a profile.  Historical markers, a painting, and a 20th century church history are not reliable sources for creating a profile for an early Native American person.  

His tribe name should be used as the LNAB when the profile is created.

Comments

This is why I posted this question and did not create a profile. Thanks.

Digging into the blog that this profile derived from (it has a new URL), it appears the author's source was something called:

Mary Huggins Kerlinger Journal, Huggins digitized collection, Minnesota Historical Society, p. 126.
