Dear Ms. Knight,

Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!

We searched the National Archives Catalog and located a series titled Student Case Files, ca. 1910 - ca. 1935 of the Fort Totten Indian School in the Records of the Bureau of Indian Affairs (Record Group 75) that may contain records of the Larocque sisters. We also located 40 series pertaining to the Fort Totten Agency in Record Group 75 that may be reviewed for information regarding the sisters.  For access to these series, assistance in searching, and inquiries about copy service, please contact the National Archives at Kansas City (RM-KC) via email at kansascity.archives@nara.gov.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and pursuant to guidance received from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), NARA has adjusted its normal operations to balance the need of completing its mission-critical work while also adhering to the recommended social distancing for the safety of NARA staff. As a result of this re-prioritization of activities, you may experience a delay in receiving an initial acknowledgement as well as a substantive response to your reference request from RM-KC. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your understanding and patience.

We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your research!
