Please Help, research assistance is requested!
I am unable to build out a branch for this person because of the many still unanswered questions regarding her identity. I am not aware of a Navajo expert on the platform so I am requesting that anyone who identifies as Navajo, and those who do not, or have previously been involved with research on Navajo families, review the data that is known and presented in this profile, with the intent to further identify this person, or more about her; her parents, siblings, partners and/or children, where she lived, etc. I have personally spent the past 5-6 days and found nothing other than what I've presented in the profile in the way of documentation, the few messy documents from the Canton Asylum in South Dakota. I suspect that she was born on the Navajo Indian Reservation in AZ., c. 1880, in a location under the jurisdiction of the Fort Defiance Indian Agency, who, for reasons known only to them, had her institutionalized at the Canton Asylum for Insane Indians in South Dakota on July 18, 1906, at the age of 26, and where she died less than three years later on February 11, 1909, at the age of 29, and where she remains today, buried in the asylum cemetery, in an unmarked grave.
Who was Asal-Tchee?
