Curley aka Ashishishe
1859 - May 21, 1923
Born in Montana, Curley was a member of the Crow Tribe and took part in several skirmishes with the Sioux before agreeing to become a scout to Colonel John Gibbon in April 1876. Two months later he was sent to join General George A. Custer in the battle of the Little Bighorn. Custer and his men were killed and Curley went on to became somewhat of a celebrity as he retold stories of the battle.
