A native american visiting Washington DC in the 1800s was kidnapped and held hostage but no ransom paid, and he was killed. I believe he is buried in the congressional cemetery. I think "crow" was part of his name. I get too many hits trying to look up items about hostages these days, can someone help?

  1. Sitting Bull and Crazy were both killed by military/police on the reservations.  Red Cloud died of natural causes.  Chief Joseph went to Washington, DC but returned to the northwest and died there.


  2. Try Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, American Horse and Black Hawk, all Indian chiefs who were killed in 1800s... Hope that helps!
