  Pike - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pike is a common family name, particularly among English-speaking populations.
In Newfoundland, Pike is especially common, ranking 22nd among all surnames there (based on the 1955 voters list, as reported by E.R.Seary in "Family Names of the Island of Newfoundland").
This phenomenon is in fact being observed by the Pike Surname DNA Project, which is using genetic testing to assist with Pike family genealogies.

 Zebulon Pike
Pike was to provide an escort for some Osage Indians who had been held as hostages by the Pottawatamies, and take them back to their home villages; negotiate a peace settlement between the Kansas and Pawnee tribes; and attempt to make contact with the Comanche people on the high plains.
Pike was an excellent observer, and was able to make mental notes of the placement of forts, the size of their garrisons, the locations of communities, and to prepare biographical sketches of their officers.
Pike was strictly told that he could no longer make notes, but he was able to do so covertly, and they were hidden in the gun barrels of his men.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Sioux Indians
At this period the Minnesota region was held by the various Santee bands; Eastern Dakota and a small part of Iowa were claimed by the Yankton and their cousins the Yanktonai; while all the Sioux territory west of the Missouri was held by bands of the great Teton division, constituting three-fifths of the whole nation.
In a battle near the present Stillwater, Minnesota, in June, 1839, some 50 Ojibwa were slain and shortly afterward a Sioux raiding party surprised an Ojibwa camp in the absence of the warriors and brought away 91 scalps.
In 1851 the various Santee bands sold all their remaining lands in Minnesota and Iowa, excepting a twenty-mile strip along the upper Minnesota River, Although there were then four missions among the Santee, the majority of the Indians were reported to have "an inveterate hatred" of Christianity.
