As a descendant of Ceran and Marcellin St. Vrain, and a former Colorado resident, I appreciate all of your efforts to preserve the Ft. St. Vrain site. Again, well done!

My daughter and I have been doing research into our St. Vrain genealogy for a historical paper she is doing in college. I am wondering if someone could help us solve a little discrepancy. We know that Marcellin St. Vrain married Royal Red (or Sioux Red as David Lavendar says). But, I have conflicting information as to whether Royal Red was Red Cloud's sister or daughter. Can anyone clear up this discrepancy, or can you give any other historical references which might help?

Thank you so much for any assistance given!

And thank you for making this website available!

Best regards,

Deborah Stratton Goetz (or as my father called me, Deborah de Hault de Lassus de St. Vrain de Stratton de Goetz)
