I was wondering if you could send a copy of that image you have of Neoskleata - the Celebrated mohawk Indian. I am doing a genealogy tracing of my family and was told one of my relatives was named Minnie Neoska Letta Neoska Lou after twin indian girls. The name Neoskleata I have seen spelled two different ways which may be an indication that there are indeed two twins but your picture is so far the only one I have heard about. In addition, the time period 1860 is about when this was to have occurred and my relatives are from New York again where it appears that Neoskleata was from. The only other information I have is that Neoskleata died in a train accident in 1863 while doing a Wild Wild West show and my relative is said to have been in the Wild Wild West show as well. I would welcome any information you have on this.
