I have seen references to Joseph Doney (A doctor from England) Married to Susie Allery as being the father of the the Doneys of the Little Shell Tribe and the Turtle Mountain Band of the Chippewa's.
I don't doubt that he was married to Susie Allery, but she would not have been his first wife. When Mary Olive Doney signrd the papers admitting her to the tribe, her Grandfather was listed as Joseph Dehoney and Grandmother as Susie Allery Dehoney
1850 U. S. Census, Pembina County, Minnesota Territory
Joseph DELAUNEY and Josephte Saulteaux ( (Henry) see census for Alexis Henry,
her brother. note household number and the date when the census was actually
taken. This suggests they lived nearby)
147, 147,
Joseph Lonais, age 29, Male, Hunter, born Red River British;
Josette, age 29, Female, born Red River British;
Joseph, age 6, Male, born Red River British;
Francois, age 2, Male, born Red River British;
Oliver, age 1, Male, born Red River British;
14 Sep 1850.
1850 U. S. Census, Pembina County, Minnesota Territory
Alexis HENRY and Marie DAUNAIS dit LYONNAISE
146, 146, Alexis Henry, age 37, Male, Hunter, born Pembina;
Mary, age 31, Female., born Red River British;
Mary, age 15, Female, born Red River British;
Alexis, age 13, Male, born Red River British;
Pierre, age 12, Male, born Red River British;
Marguerite, age 9, Female, born Red River British;
Angelic, age 7, Female, born Red River British;
Mackiel, age 5, Male, born Red River British;
Maurice, age 2, Male, born Red River British;
14 Sep 1850.
This census information was gathered and published by Gail Morin.
Note Marie DAUNAIS dit LYONNAISE. His sister named Daunais pronounced DonAy.
I realise that that this census information doesn't prove that this is the
Joseph Delauney who started the Doney line but check the age of the son
Joseph (The Man) and Francoise (Frank).
The name written on the Roe Cloud Roll application (Dehoney) could easily
be Delauney. The third son of Joseph (Oliver) as written in the census is
the right age for Leonid. Suppose the census taker says "And what is
the baby's name?" Lally they reply. Leonid was called Lally all of
his life. The census taker heard "Ollie" and wrote down Oliver.
It could happen and I think it probably did although it could hardly be
called proof.
Connecting Joseph Delaunay to the Doney line is again circumstantial. Here
is some more information compiled by Gail Morin
Francois Lionais dit Delaunay was also known as Francois Lyonnais (SN1 Catholic
Parish Register of St.Norbert 1857-1874, Volume One, Hudson Bay Company
Archives, Winnipeg, Manitoba, S-5, page 21.). He was also known as Francois
Daunais(1832C RRS HBCA E5/6 1832 Census of the Red River Settlement, HBCA
E5/6, Hudson's Bay Company Archives, Provincial Archives, 200 Vaughan Street,
Winnipeg, MB R3C 1T5, Canada., page 5.). He was also known as Francois Lionay(SB
St.Boniface Roman Catholic Registre des Baptemes, Mariages & Sepultures,
1825-1834, page 50, M-56 (father).). He was born circa 1774(SN1, S-5, page
21.). He was born on 18 November 1780 in Laprairie(Pat Turenne Research,
22 Jul 2000; Source: Alfred Fortier SHSB.). As of 18 November 1780, he was
also known as Francois Daunay(ibid.). He was born circa 1781(1830C RRS HBCA
E5/4 1830 Census of the Red River Settlement, HBCA E5/4, Hudson's Bay Company
Archives, Provincial Archives, 200 Vaughan Street, Winnipeg, MB R3C 1T5,
Canada., page 5.). He and Louise Sauteuse were married according to the
custom of the country before 1809. He died on 15 November 1859 in St.Norbert(SN1,
S-5, page 21.). As of 16 November 1859, he was also known as Francois Lyonnaise(ibid.).
He was buried on 16 November 1859 in St.Norbert S-5, Francois Lyonnais,
buried 16 November 1859, died yesterday, age 85 years, present at the burial:
Joseph Lyonnais and Alexis Henry who could not sign. J. J. M. Lestanc, C.
of St. Norbert O.M.I(ibid.).
Again I say that there is no hard proof here, but very often there isn't
when doing genealogy research. If it were easy, three quarters of the women
in the US would be members of the DAR. (Daughters if the American Revolution)
Note all the names each person used for whatever reason. It is particularly
bad in Canada where they used Aliases, dit names, and maybe a dozen different
spellings for the same name, But you know that. I hope this helps
