Series 2: Community and Field Worker Materials

The Community and Field Worker Materials contain academic papers; field journals and notes; transcripts and recordings of oral history interviews, songs, and linguistic information; photographs and slides depicting American Indian and First Nations’ reservations and reserves, as well as ceremonies, festivities, and performances; copies of archival material and Tribal records collected from community repositories; and booklets, maps, pamphlets and ephemera collected from the communities and tourist centers. The Tribes and communities who created this knowledge and cultural heritage dictate access protocols to these materials, and we are still in the process of working with Tribes and reviewing the collection’s contents to create access policies. As such, most of this content is restricted due to either Tribal policy or review status. Digitized materials available for Tribal or public access may be found at https://nativeoralhistory.org/. 

Sub-Series 1: James Baltaxe: Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara (The Three Affiliated Tribes)

Baltaxe spent the summer of 1967 on the Fort Berthold Reservation in Newtown, North Dakota, among the Three Affiliated Tribes (Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara Nation [MHA]). His research interest was the history and impact of the Garrison Dam construction which led to the flooding of MHA ancestral land, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs forced displacement and relocation of many members of the Tribes. Significant consultants for his work include brothers Clyde and Paige Baker, of Mandan and Hidatsa ancestry, as well as Philip Atkins and Rufus Stevenson, who were Hidatsa speakers. Baltaxe conducted some of his research with his wife, Wendy Baltaxe, as well as fellow Doris Duke field worker Stephen Maack, both of whom are featured on audiotape recordings.

Sub-Series 2: Allen Berman: Fort Mojave

Berman worked among the Fort Mojave community on the Eastern bank of the Colorado River and on the outskirts of Needles, California from June 20 to September 8, 1968. His research technique was that of participant observation, stressing informal interaction with the members of the Tribe. His interviews are his own accounts interspersed with type-written field notes and quotes from consultants. Tribal Chairman Llewellyn Barrackman was resistant to granting Berman permission to stay on the reservation and encouraged him to rent a room at a motel off of the reservation. Berman insisted that he did not have the funds to pay for a hotel room and that he wanted to live with a Fort Mojave family on the reservation for the sake of the supposed quality of his research (whether the first statement is true is uncertain, given that the Doris Duke grant would have likely provided field workers with funds for lodging). Barrackman explained that he could not agree to let Berman live in reservation housing since the community was struggling with a lack of sufficient housing. Barrackmen later agreed to let Berman reside in his own home and told Berman that he was not allowed to take notes or ask questions during interviews between them. It is important to note this aspect about Berman’s lodging during his field work because in his field reports and related correspondence, Berman refers to himself as “the first white man allowed to live in the village,” and this statement was repeated in the original Doris Duke Archives finding aid despite the fact that his field notes present a more complicated and coercive unfolding of events.

Sub-Series 3: Niels Winter Braroe: Nekaneet Cree

Braroe worked at the Maple Creek, Saskatchewan, Indian Reserve, from November 1966 through August 1967. He worked with the Nekaneet Cree primarily, as well as the Blackfeet Nation. Braroe intended to research the uses and creation of historical information for Plains Cree Reserve members. Working with community members, he made tape recordings of oral histories in Cree with translations made by an interpreter, and additionally conducted oral histories concerning the impact of European settler-colonialism on the community. Braroe worked significantly with five consultants, although he conducted informal interviews with others on the Reserve. Absolute anonymity was promised to all consultants. In addition to Nekaneet Cree First Nation and Blackfeet of Maple Creek, some materials are related to: Kainai (Blood) First Nation, Piikani Nation, Red Pheasant Cree Nation, and Siksika Nation.

Sub-Series 4: Richard Clemmer: Hopi

Clemmer spent the summers of 1968 and 1969 among the Hopi in northern Arizona, residing in New Oraibi and visiting nearby villages. He focused his research on the development of political factions and their activities in the different Hopi communities within the reservation. Clemmer utilized informal, non-taped interviews and archival research as his research methods, writing notes in his field journal only after conversations were had. While Donna and David Eyde, who had worked with the Hopi the year prior, offered financial compensation to consultants, Clemmer found that doing so was “insulting and ill-received”; as such, he endeavored to form personal relationships with community members and provided his service and gifts when possible. He includes in his field work reports the acknowledgement that the Hopi were wary of anthropologists after they repeatedly exploited the Hopi community, a fact brought up to him in conversation with community members. The chief at Hotevilla allowed Clemmer to do fieldwork in said village. Clemmer primarily worked with and wrote about the Hopi, but he attended multi-Tribal events and collected documents pertaining to other Tribes, including: Chemehuevi Indian Tribe, Colorado River Indian Tribes (Chemehuevi, Mojave, Hopi, Navajo), Crow Tribe, Fort Mojave Indian Tribe, Hoopa Valley Tribe, Kiowa Tribe, Miami Tribe of Oklahoma, Mohawk Nation at Akwesasne, Navajo Nation, Nisqually Indian Tribe, Northern Cheyenne Nation, Ohkay Owingeh (Pueblo) Community, Pueblo of Cochiti, Pueblo of Jemez, Pueblo of Laguna, Pueblo of Zuni, Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe, Seneca Nation, Taos Pueblo, Tulalip Tribes (Snohomish, Snoqualmie, Skykomish, and Allied Tribes), Tuscarora Nation, Ute Mountain Ute Tribe, Western Shoshone Tribe, White Earth Nation, White Mountain Apache Tribe, Yavapai Nation.

Sub-Series 5: Elizabeth "Betsy" Conklin: Eastern Shoshone

Elizabeth “Betsy” Conklin spent the summer of 1966 on the Wind River Reservation to work with Shoshone teenagers (ages 12-20) to “determine their manifest interests and expressed aspirations,” comparing her findings to those of Demitri Shimkin who conducted a similar study in the 1930s. She gathered information from the Shoshone teenagers by distributing questionnaires and observing teen dances, Sun Dance preparations, recreational activities, and formal occasions. She additionally worked with school teachers and principals, as well as the teenagers’ families. Her field notes contain impressionistic sketches of informal conversations with various community members about a variety of topics related to the Wind River Reservation and Native American life. It is unclear whether she obtained informed consent from the minors and their families, and if she spoke with all of the participants’ families about her research.

Dewhirst spent the summer of 1968 among the Halkomelem and Straits Coast Salish of British Columbia and Washington State, and among the Makah at Neah Bay, Washington. He researched the historical development and present organization of a series of annual festivals among the Salish community, and collected census data about tribes near the Pacific Northwest region. He researched and attended festivals including: the Saanish Indian Festival in Brentwood, British Columbia (sponsored by the Tsartlip, Tsawout, Pauquachin, and Tseycum); the Corpus Christie Cowichan Indian Sports event in Duncan, B.C. (sponsored by the Cowichan); Coal Tyee Day in Nanaimo, B.C. (likely sponsored by the Snuneymuxw people); the Cultus Lake Indian Festival in Cultus Lake, B.C. (sponsored by Coast Salish bands in the Chilliwack area); the Lummi Stommish Water Carnival on the Lummi Indian Reservation; “Indian Day” in Vancouver, B.C. (he assumed this event was sponsored by communities including the Squamish, Musqueam, and the Tseil-Waututh); Chief Thunderbird Day in Brentwood, B.C. (sponsored by the Tsartlip); and Makah Day in Neah Bay, Washington.

Sub-Series 8: Alexander "Sandy" M. Ervin: Alaska Native Communities (Includes Alutiiq, Inupiaq, Tanana Athapaskan, Tlingit & Haida Tribes, Unangax, and Yupik Peoples)

Between October 1967 and January 1968, Alexander Ervin conducted field-research on Alaskan Native political organizations. He conducted most of his research in Fairbanks, but additionally travelled to Bethel, Anchorage, and the village of Emmonak for field work. Meeting with political organizers, University of Alaska students, and locals, he conducted interviews with a variety of individuals who discussed their experiences with education, employment issues, issues in fishing, hunting and trapping, racial tensions (between whites, Native Americans, Native Alaskans, and Black people), alcoholism, and political mobilization primarily centered around land claims. He interviewed representatives of the Alaska Federation of Natives, significantly Emil Notti; Richard Frank and Ralph Perdue of the Fairbanks Native Association; Archie Watson of the Kuskokwim Valley Native Association; Howard Rock who ran the Tundra Times Native interests newspaper; and others involved with the Tanana Chiefs, the Alaska Native Brotherhood. Ervin’s field notes depict the successes and struggles of Native Alaskan political organizers, and the diverse perspectives about the state of cultural and political affairs among Alaskan Natives.

Sub-Series 9: David and Donna Eyde: Hopi Tribe

David Eyde – an associate professor of anthropology at the University of Illinois -- and his wife, Donna, spent three weeks in August and September 1967 on the Hopi mesas in Arizona. They were interested in documenting broad changes in the community since World War II. They met and informally interviewed people they encountered in public places like cafes, craft shops, motels, and bars. These encounters led to several unstructured, taped interviews. Both David and Donna Eyde conducted interviews and recorded field notes; Donna additionally conducted an oral history interview herself. It is unclear whether they consistently used waiver forms, meaningfully conveyed the purpose of the Doris Duke project to their consultants, or that consultants gave informed consent.

Fowler spent the summer of 1967 and February 1968 on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming. She primarily worked with the Arapaho Tribe, studying the enterprise of the Arapaho Ranch. Her interests then broadened to include political processes and leadership roles among the Arapaho, and Arapaho migration patterns in Chicago; consultants discussed these topics in oral history interviews. Her consultants include: Maud Clairmont, Hazel Harris, Nellie Scott, and Ben Friday. Other UI Doris Duke field workers additionally met with these same consultants.

Sub-Series 11: Merwyn S. Garbarino: Native Americans Living in Chicago

In 1969, Garbarino studied the diverse Native American population of the greater Chicago area (estimated between 10,000-20,000 persons in the 1960s), who had lived in the city for varying periods of time. She studied records from and worked with the American Indian Center, Montrose Center, St. Augustine Center, Chicago Indian Ministry, and the Chicago Office of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, as the basis for her research and her method for contacting consultants. Many consultants had moved to Chicago through the BIA’s Employment Office, which relocated qualifying people from reservations to the city and provided them with employment. In August and September of 1969, she travelled to Keshena, Wisconsin (part of the former Menominee Reservation), and reservations including Fort Peck, Fort Berthold, and Cass Lake, as these regions were the homes of most of her consultants prior to their relocation to Chicago. She conducted a total of 63 interviews, and all consultants were promised anonymity. Subjects discussed in the interviews includes: family and marriage, life and labor in the city, Native American identity and traditions, activism, education, mental illness and addiction, and the BIA and the American Indian Center. In October of 1969, Garbarino joined the staff of the American Indian Center as a fieldworker in Welfare and Family Services. Interviewees were affiliated with communities including: Ojibwe, Menominee, Sioux, Oneida, Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara, Mohawk, Seminole, Aaniiih (Gros Ventre), Alaska Native Community, Apache, Blackfeet, Cherokee, Cheyenne River Sioux, Gila River Pima, Ho-Chunk Nation (Wisconsin, Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska), Meskwaki, Navajo, Nimíipuu (Nez Perce), Northern Arapaho, Ottawa Tribe of Oklahoma, Potawatomi, Standing Rock Sioux.

Sub-Series 12: Joseph Hemphill: Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho

Hemphill spent the summers of 1967 and 1968 on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming among the Shoshone and Arapaho Tribes, studying the history of the development of the Joint Tribal Business Council. He conducted informal interviews with members of the Tribal Council and the community, though any field notes, recordings, or transcripts were not archived in this collection. However, included are copies of extensive primary source material from public records and publications, including newsletters from the Wind River Reservation, meeting minutes and records from the Joint Tribal Council spanning about 30 years, and census records. Both Hemphill and Loretta Fowler worked with the Wind River Reservation community around this time, and worked with some of the same consultants, like Maude Clairmont (Business Council member, Shoshone) and Nellie Scott (Arapaho Tribal Council member).

Sub-Series 13: George Hicks: Narragansett

Hicks studied the Narragansett during August and September of 1968 and in January of 1969. His research concerns the different conceptions of tribal history found among the Narragansett of Rhode Island, and referred to primary sources in the form of archival materials, such as tribal records, and the Narragansett Dawn, a publication from the 1930s, to obtain information on Narragansett history; copies of some of his sources are included with his materials. Hick's research assistant, David Kertzer conducted interviews with Narragansett consultants, including Everette Weeden, Lucille Dawson, Alberta Stanton, Reverend Harold Mars, and Mary Condon (Princess Red Wing). Interviews were tape-recorded (with varying audio quality), with typed transcripts created after. Hicks’s research proposal indicates that consultants were paid $1.50/hour for their time participating in interviews, and Kertzer explicitly communicated to a concerned consultant that “nothing will be quoted” in publications without the consultants’ written permission.

Sub-Series 14: Leanne Hinton: Havasupai Tribe (Primary)

Hinton spent the summer of 1967 among the Havasupai in Northern Arizona and Southern California, funded by the Doris Duke Foundation. She had previously visited the community to study Havasupai music and had already established contacts in the area, and was able to stay with a Havasupai family during her field research. Hinton continued her previous research, interviewing musicians and collecting tapes of songs and dances. Consultants were paid by the hour to have formal oral history interviews conducted, perform songs, and provide translations. Hinton noted that those who were willing to work with her usually did not adhere strongly to particular cultural traditions of only performing songs in the context which they were written to be performed. Moreover, she researched topics like social change, gathering information from informal interviews with people in the area willing to talk to her (and were not paid for these interactions). Her most significant consultants include: Lem Paya, Dan Hanna, Effie Hanna, Mabel Hanna, and Edith Putesoy. Some of the tapes she collected contain recordings made prior to the Doris Duke project.

Sub-Series 15: Nels Johnson: We Wai Kai First Nation (Primary), Laich-Wil-Tach First Nations

Nels Johnson worked for ten weeks between June and August, 1968, in the village of Cape Mudge near Vancouver Island, among We Wai Kai First Nation. The focus of the field research was upon the legitimization and transitions of authority roles, as well as the history and relevance of the potlatch. Dave Moon, the chief councilor, permitted Johnson to reside in the village during his research. Johnson stayed at the home of a local family who volunteered their house to him while the family was away to fish.

Sub-Series 18: Bonnie and David Kettel: ?Na?m?is First Nation

Bonnie and David Kettel spent the summer of 1967 in Alert Bay, British Columbia on Cormorant Island. They resided and worked with members of ?Na?m?is First Nation, who they refer to in their texts as the Nimpkish Band of Kwakiutl (“?Na?m?is” and “Kwakwa?ka??wakw” are the terms the community uses to define themselves as of 2024). Their primary research interests concerned ?Na?m?is traditional ceremonial practices and the struggles they faced to continue their traditions when the Canadian government banned such practices and harassed those who performed their ancestral traditions. James Sewid, the Chief Councillor of the Kwawaka’wakw at Alert Bay, permitted the Kettels to conduct their research in the community, and was additionally a primary consultant for their project. Other consultants whom they interviewed include: Emma Beans, Daisy Neel, Dora Cook, Dal Broadhead, Agnes Cranmer, Herbert Martin, Bob Bell, Edna Alfred, Drew Oswell, Dave Shaunessy, and members of James Sewid’s family.

Sub-Series 19: Norma Linton: Crow (1968, 1970-1973) and Navajo (1969)

Norma Linton’s initial Doris Duke fieldwork focused on self-destructive behaviors (including alcoholism, suicidality, self-harm) with the intention of developing a comparative study of Plains and Navajo communities. She was interested in this topic due to her background in psychology and her work caring for people with mental illness. In the summer of 1968, she conducted field work on the Crow Reservation and made contact with consultants through the Public Health Service, and she developed a close relationship with a Crow family whom she met through her field work. In the summer of 1969, she conducted research in with the Navajo community, specifically in the Window Rock and Fort Defiance area. She returned to the Crow Reservation from 1970-1972 and lived with the Crow family with whom she had become close (she would return to visit them multiple times over the course of the rest of her life). During this time, her research interests became more focused on Crow family dynamics and their adoption practices; she recorded multiple oral histories with members of the community and attended lectures about Crow culture. Her field report lists field notes, interviews, and photographs that are not currently in the collection, as she did not want these materials accessible in archives due to their sensitive content. Linton’s papers are housed with University Archives, see record series 26/20/279.

Sub-Series 20: Richard Lowenthal: Crow

Lowenthal spent the summer of 1967 at the Crow Reservation in Montana, researching local celebrations and ceremonies. He attended and researched the Crow Fair, the Sun Dance, the Sheridan All American Indian Days in Wyoming, and the Custer Battle Re-Enactment sponsored by the Crow (which Stephen Maack also attended). He consulted with Crow men who worked at the Tribal Council Building, and in 1968 returned to the reservation to record oral histories with Tom Tobacco, Joe Medicine Crow (the Tribal Historian at the time), and Lloyd (Mickey) Old Coyote. Oral histories focused primarily on Crow ceremonies, especially the Sun Dance, and Crow legends.

Sub-Series 25: Kay Voget: Crow Nation

Mary Katherine “Kay” Voget and her husband, anthropologist Fred Voget, conducted field work in  June of 1968 among the Crow, where they both had longstanding connections. Neither Kay nor Fred were enrolled at the University of Illinois; Fred began working as a professor for Southern Illinois University – Edwardsville in 1965, and likely due to his proximity to UIUC, connection to Crow Nation, and professional familiarity with Edward Bruner, the Vogets were able to conduct brief field work for the Doris Duke project with University of Illinois funding. Materials include 21 pages of field notes written by Kay, containing notes from informal interviews. They interviewed members of the Deernose, Yellowtail, and Lefthand families, with whom they had established rapport from the time the Vogets spent living and working with the Crow 10-20 years prior. Interviewed consultants include Ataloha and her husband, Ivan (Northern Cheyenne); Ira, Frederick, and Ramona Left Hand; Big Leg (grandson of Chief Pretty Eagle); Henry Old Coyote; John Hill; Bob Bends; and Donnie and Agnes Deernose. Agnes Yellowtail Deernose would be the subject of They Call Me Agnes, a biography Fred would publish in 1995.

Sub-Series 26: Barbara Wilson: Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara Nation (Three Affiliated Tribes)

Barbara Wilson, with her husband, lived on the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota from June 17 to August 11, 1968. After a brief period in New Town, Wilson rented a trailer from Mervel Hall and resided in Mandaree for her field research. She specifically studied the Mandaree community, which had been created about 15 years prior in the wake of the Garrison Dam’s construction which resulted in the flooding of MHA ancestral lands and the forced displacement of the Indigenous communities. Doris Duke fieldworkers James Baltaxe and Stephen Maack had additionally researched this topic in this community, but they had extensively interviewed white residents involved with the Dam’s construction and the BIA whereas Wilson worked specifically with the Mandaree community. Wilson did not use tape recorders but rather gathered information based on informal interviews with community members and public events. Her major consultants include members of the Baker, Fox, Hall, and Whitman families.
