Lemhi Chief Tindoor and wife

The Lemhi Reservation was a United States Indian Reservation for the Lemhi Shoshone from 1875-1907. During almost all this time their main chief was Tendoy.[1]

The group of about 700 that the reservation was formed for in 1875 also included Sheepeater Indians and Bannocks. Tendoy himself had one Lemhi Shoshone and one Bannock parent.
