Notice of Intended Disinterment
AGENCY: Department of the Army, DoD.
ACTION: Notice of intended disinterment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Army National Military Cemeteries (ANMC) is honoring the
requests of three families from the Northern Arapaho Tribe to disinter
the human remains of three Native American children from the Carlisle
Barracks Post Cemetery, Carlisle, Pennsylvania. The decedent names are
Little Plume (aka Hayes Vanderbilt Friday), Little Chief (aka Dickens
Nor), and Horse (aka Horace Washington). The decedents died in the
early 1880s while attending the Carlisle Indian Industrial School. ANMC
will disinter, transfer custody, transport, and reinter the remains in
private cemeteries in Fremont County, Wyoming. This disinterment will
be conducted in accordance with Army Regulation 210-190. This is not a
Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) action
because the remains are not part of a collection as they are interred
in graves that are individually marked at the Carlisle Barracks Post
Cemetery.
DATES: Disinterment is scheduled to begin on August 8, 2017.
Transportation to and re-interment in Fremont County, Wyoming will take
place as soon as practical after the disinterment. If other living
relatives object to the disinterment of these remains, please provide
written objection to Lieutenant Colonel Brent Kauffman at the address
listed below prior to July 21, 2017.
ADDRESSES: Objections from family members and public comments can be
mailed to Lieutenant Colonel Brent Kauffman, ANMC Project Manager,
Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington, Virginia 22211 or emailed to
[email protected] (preferred).
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lieutenant Colonel Brent Kauffman,
ANMC Project Manager at the email address listed above.
