But postwar America reimaged the story of Custer in the West, and he was quickly transformed into the villain of the story. Custer’s historical reputation has mirrored a changing America.

    LITTLE BIGHORN NATIONAL MONUMENT TEACHER’S GUIDE TEACHER’S GUIDE LITTLE BIGHORN NATIONAL MONUMENT INTRODUCTION The purpose of this Teacher’s Guide is to provide teachers grades K-12 information and activities concerning Plains Indian Life-ways, the events surrounding the Battle of the Little Bighorn, the Personalities involved and the Impact of the Battle. The information provided can be modified to fit most ages. Unit One: PERSONALITIES Unit Two: PLAINS INDIAN LIFE-WAYS Unit Three: CLASH OF CULTURES Unit Four: THE CAMPAIGN OF 1876 Unit Five: BATTLE OF THE LITTLE BIGHORN Unit Six: IMPACT OF THE BATTLE In 1879 the land where The Battle of the Little Bighorn occurred was designated Custer Battlefield National Cemetery in order to protect the bodies of the men buried on the field of battle. With this designation, the land fell under the control of the United States War Department. It would remain under their control until 1940, when the land was turned over to the National Park Service. Custer Battlefield National Monument was established by Congress in 1946. The name was changed to Little Bighorn National Monument in 1991. This area was once the homeland of the Crow Indians who by the 1870s had been displaced by the Lakota and Cheyenne. The park consists of 765 acres on the east boundary of the Little Bighorn River: the larger north- ern section is known as Custer Battlefield, the smaller Reno-Benteen Battlefield is located on the bluffs over-looking the river five miles to the south. The park lies within the Crow Indian Reservation in southeastern Montana, one mile east of I-90.

  • Myles Keogh Was Born in March 1840 at Orchard, Leighlinbridge, County Carlow to John and Margaret Keogh
    HIDDEN GEMS AND FORGOTTEN PEOPLE MYLES W KEOGH - THE PAPAL MEDALS & SITTING BULL. Myles Keogh was born in March 1840 at Orchard, Leighlinbridge, County Carlow to John and Margaret Keogh. He was one of nine surviving children and attended St. Patrick's College, Carlow. Myles became a soldier of fortune, became a 2nd Lieutenant in the Irish Battalion of St. Patrick and fought with the Papal forces of Pope Pius IX against the forces of Garabaldi, who were at that time trying to unite Italy. The papal army were defeated but Keogh remained in Italy and became a Papal Guard. He received, along with all the St. Patrick's Battalion, a papal medal, Pro Petri Sede for defending the throne of Peter. He was also decorated with the Order of St. Gregory the Great for bravery and distinguished service. He then travelled to America and fought on the Federal side in the Civil War. After the Civil War finished he ended up as a 2nd Lieutenant in the 4th Cavalry and fought alongside Custer at the battle of the Little Big Horn. He was killed along with everyone else at the battle on June 25th 1876. The only two bodies not scalped and mutilated were Custer and Keogh. The story is that Keogh had his papal medal around his neck on the day of the battle. It is believed that the Indians, being superstitious, did not mutilate his body because they considered the medal a powerful charm. It is recorded as well that when Sitting Bull was killed he was wearing Keogh's papal medal.

  • At the Flood
    CHAPTER 1 At the Flood igh up in his fl oating tower, Captain Grant Marsh guided the riverboat Far West toward Fort Lincoln, the home of Lieuten- ant Colonel George Armstrong Custer and the U.S. Army’s Seventh Cavalry. This was Marsh’s fi rst trip up the Missouri since the ice and snow had closed the river the previous fall, and Hlike any good pilot he was carefully studying how the waterway had changed. Every year, the Missouri—at almost three thousand miles the lon- gest river in the United States—reinvented itself. Swollen by spring rain and snowmelt, the Missouri wriggled and squirmed like an overloaded fi re hose, blasting away tons of bottomland and, with it, grove after grove of cottonwood trees. By May, the river was studded with partially sunken cottonwoods, their sodden root-balls planted fi rmly in the mud, their water-laved trunks angled downriver like spears. Nothing could punch a hole in the bottom of a wooden steamboat like the submerged tip of a cottonwood tree. Whereas the average life span of a seagoing vessel was twenty years, a Missouri riverboat was lucky to last fi ve. Rivers were the arteries, veins, and capillaries of the northern plains, the lifelines upon which all living things depended. Rivers determined 1 0001-470_PGI_Last_Stand.indd01-470_PGI_Last_Stand.indd 1 33/4/10/4/10 110:37:400:37:40 AMAM 2 · THE LAST STAND · the annual migration route of the buffalo herds, and it was the buf- falo that governed the seasonal movements of the Indians.
