Good research All, and good links, Kat. Interesting feller, he was. Also interesting the leader of the event, Crazy Horse.

Lately (these past 24 years) I've had an interest in the Little Big Horn battle as my company wrote life insurance on Custer & five of his officers. Company lore (and it's gotta be at least 100 years old) is that the Company is still hunting for the fool agent that wrote the policies. One of our handouts is a fax of the death register for the six men - - - since you will ask, it was $5,000 each, a good size for those days. I'm not aware we held any paper on the NAs.
