Did Libby Bacon Custer have any children by General George Armstrong Custer?

In James Donovan's A Terrible Glory - (Custer and the Little Bighorn) it states that Custer contracted gonorrhea before his marriage to Elizabeth Bacon, also known as Libby. This most likely explains why they had no children.BWWCuster childrenElizabeth Custer never had any children although they wanted some. One theory is that cavalry men such as General Custer, and other men who rode often on horseback, suffered from sperm damage due to the pounding on the testicles from excessive riding. Some of those who hated Custer had told of a child that he had fathered, with a young Cheyenne girl, in 1869. Though, actually, one of my relatives supposedly lived with the Custers for about 6 years. I have nothing to substantiate this, however, except for the "family story". I am looking for something to "say it is true" but have found nothing yet. It was, actually, a half - sister to my grandmother. If anyone has any information regarding this, please email me at Raysenhell123@aol.com. I sure would appreciate it.TX******I was wondering if anyone ever heard of the Custers raising a girl for about 6 years. I am trying to find out if a family story about this is true, and if there was ever anything written about a young girl staying with them, that would be great!!Barb

Why was the battle of litte bighorn both a victory and a defeat for native Americans?

It was a victory because the Native Americans won a big battle and killed General Custer. This proved that if they fought together that could win battles against the Americans. But afterwards this battle was a defeat because when the Americans heard when the Indians had done they got really angry, (and a bit scared I suspect), and for revenge they started killing lots of peaceful Native Americans on reservations, as well as trying harder to round up 'wild' Indians. A famous example of this happened at Wounded Knee. This destroyed the last of the Native American spirit.
