Standing Rock Reservation


One of several Reservations in North Dakota, Standing Rock Reservation is a violated Ojibway Reservation that's adjacent to Cheyenne River Reservation. Below are maps of this Reservation, links to google earth photos of Fort Yates and Demographics of Standing Rock Reservation. Much of Standing Rock Reservation is located in South Dakota. Ojibway People lving there, no longer know who they are. They've been brainwashed. Origins of their "Sioux" name is where Sault (it's pronounced identical to Sioux) Ste. Marie, Michigan is. They commenced to calling Ojibway's that lived at and near Sault Ste. Marie, "Sioux" long ago. Eventually they commenced to calling them "Sault'teaux (it's supposedly pronounced as so-to yet it's corrupted or should be pronounced as soot-to), to cover-up their deception. These Ojibway's of South Dakota are a lost cause. They don't know about Seven Fires Prophesy nor would they follow Seven Fires Prophesy if they knew about it. They also don't know about their Dakota name origins. It's from an Ojibway word for "alliance." It's "Wi-do-ko-da-di-win." Standing Rock Reservation was originally a part of Great Sioux Reservation which was set aside on April 29, 1868. On September 26, 1876, Great Sioux Reservation was probably reduced in size. However, much land was retained. Cheyenne River and Standing Rock Reservation, was extensive. So was Pine Ridge and Rosebud Reservation. Grand River was boundary between Cheyenne River Reservation and Standing Rock Reservation. Below is a map of Cheyenne River and Standing Rock Reservation from 1883.



Supposedly Great Sioux Reservation was not reduced in size until March 2, 1889. However, the 1883 map is proof of Great Sioux Reservation being reduced in size in 1876. Historians are fooling you about 1876-1877's War. Great Sioux Reservation was extensive. Cheyenne River and Standing Rock Reservation, retain their original boundaries from 1876. Grand River is Cheyenne River Reservations north boundary. Chief Rocky Boy was possibly elected highest ranking Ojibway leader in 1902. He agreed to accept land allotments which could not be sold. He also agreed to allow Surplus Land to be opened to white settlement. Standing Rock Reservations west was considered Surplus Land and opened to white settlement. Land acts followed!



1868: On April 29, Great Sioux Reservation was set aside
1876: On September 26, Great Sioux Reservation is reduced to Cheyenne River/Standing Rock, Crow Creek/Lower Brule and Pine Ridge/Rosebud Reservations
1889: On March 2, they officially announced creations of Cheyenne River/Standing Rock, Crow Creek/Lower Brule and Pine Ridge/Rosebud Reservations
1896: On February 20, an act amended March 2, 1889's Treaty and added hidden details possibly related to Montana Ojibway Deportations of 1896
1907: On March 1, Land Act allotted 1,388,612 acres to 4,717 Ojibway's
1908: On May 29, more land allotments followed
1909: On August 19, President Tafts Proclamation opened 1,061,500 acres (it was considered Surplus Land) to white settlement
1913: On February 14, more land allotments followed (many of chief Rocky Boy's Ojibway Subjects were allotted land)
1915: On March 15, remainder of Surplus Land opened to white settlement

Chief Rocky Boy tried to prevent Deportations yet couldn't. At St. Peter's Mission (it's located about 30 miles southwest of Great Falls), a fire destroyed much of the mission including Stone Boys (as in Rocky Boys) School. Swan Valley Massacre happened in 1908. In 1909, they conspired to close Fort Shaw Industrial Indian School. Fort Shaw is located about 15 to 20 miles north of St. Peters Mission. In November 1909, Deportations started at Helena. Chief Rocky Boy was given a Reservation within Blackfeet Reservation. Many of his Ojibway Subjects were Deported to South Dakota including Cheyenne River Reservation and Standing Rock Reservation. American leaders refused to honor agreements they reached with chief Rocky Boy pertaining to land allotments. That's why much of Standing Rock Reservation is owned by whites. Since evidence indicates no Surplus Land at Cheyenne River Reservation was involved, we must follow original treaty agreements from September 26, 1876 and also from March 2, 1889. It means Grand River is boundary between Cheyenne River Reservation and Standing Rock Reservation. Those old maps confirm that both Cheyenne River Reservation and Standing Rock Reservation, were created on September 26, 1876.



Fort Yates is located on "Fee Land" which means it's subject to city, county and State taxes. Population of Fort Yates is 2,489. That's according to 2010's census. Population is also from Fort Yates zip code which covers 176.1 sq. mi. Ojibway's account for 92.8% of the population. McLaughlin is also located on "Fee Land." It's located in South Dakota. It's also located on "Fee Land." McLaughlin has a population of 663. Ojibway's account for 65.3% of the population of McLaughlin. Other communities include Bullhead, Cannon Ball, Kenel, Little Eagle, Porcupine, Selfridge, Solen and Wakpala. During 1876-1877's War in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming, chief Sitting Bull joined with Chief Big Bear and chief Rocky Boy and fled to Canada. They settled around the Cyprus Hills which are 150 miles or 241 kilometers northeast of Great Falls, Montana. Chief Sitting Bull was living at or near Great Falls in the 1870's. Among the 10,000's of Ojibway's that fled to Canada, about 5,000 were led by chief Sitting Bull. Most were led by chief Big Bear. Chief Sitting Bull returned to his native Montana on July 17, 1881. American leaders were strict with chief Sitting Bull. They refused to allow him and his Ojibway Subjects to live in their native Montana. They were forced to relocate to Standing Rock Reservation. It's obvious that chief Rocky Boy has relations at Standing Rock Reservation. Many of chief Rocky Boy's relations live at Rocky Boy Reservation. Standing Rock is a well known surname at Rocky Boy Reservation.
