The original said that Rattling Blanket Woman was sister of Spotted Tail. This is probably erroneous. The relevant para in the Crazy Horse article says:

Crazy Horse's father, who was also named Crazy Horse (c. 1811) but took the name Worm after passing the name to his son, was Oglala Lakota and his mother, Rattling Blanket Woman (c. 1815), was Miniconjou Lakota. Rattling Blanket Woman may have been a member of the One Horn or Lone Horn family, leaders of the Miniconjou. Crazy Horse had a sister whose name has been forgotten, and a half-brother, Little Hawk, born when his father remarried the two sisters of the Brulé Lakota chief Spotted Tail. Historians believe that his mother either hanged herself when Worm's brother was killed in a raid on the Crows, or, that she returned to her Miniconjou family - N (talk) 19:37, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
