Case Notes

Haunted Lineage note: Research conducted October 2025 confirms there is NO cemetery at the Verendrye Monument location. The Verendrye Monument is a standalone historic site on Verendrye Hill in Fort Pierre, South Dakota, marking where the Verendrye brothers buried a lead plate in 1743 to claim the territory for France. The nearest cemetery is Cedar Hill Cemetery, located several miles away. Original listing from The Shadowlands Database incorrectly referenced 'old graveyard near Verendrye monument' - corrected to reflect actual site name.
