Does anyone have any information on this woman of the Karuk tribe, Hazel Humprey-Joiner? The image is from 1918. Thank you.

Gilmore is from here in Lincoln and has long been an ethnobotany hero of mine. I've started a new project on Great Plains botany/horticulture---the relationship between peoples and plants., so on my last research trip I looked at his collections in North Dakota repositories. And there is a lot of his stuff here at the Nebraska State Historical Society, where he worked. His Arikara work is great; it's wonderful that it's on line.

Where is the most accessible place to get the McGlaughlin papers? any suggestions other than kansas. I think they are microfilmed and you can get them through Interlibrary Loan----from SHSND or UND.

I am sorry to hear about this. It was an extensive and important resource. Hopefully this is just some sort of glitch. If not, maybe some other site could host the scanned documents. So much work was done to create it.

Hi Kingsley I came back from my archive research trip with so many thousands of pages of photocopies and scans that I haven't processed them yet. I was just just copying like crazy---and at Grand Forks you could use their fancy scanner for free. I have read a lot of handwritten archival material but nothing I've seen compares to the indecipherable scribble of Beede! If I remember correctly, I concentrated on the material that his daughter had transcribed. It is unfortunate as there are scores of journals that Beede kept. When I do go through it this winter--along with other Beede material I copied at NDSU and at Bismarck--I will keep my eyes open and share what may be of interest.

Thanks, Louie. There is some Beede correspondence with people in the SHSND in Bismarck---Gilmore, for sure but, yes, the bulk of Beede's papers are at Grand Forks. Maybe some day someone will have the patience to read all those journals of scribble. I did scan a bunch of his letters and some of the journal transcripts.

I was wondering if anyone has done any work with the Beede Collection at the University of North Dakota? Aaron McGaffey Beede was an Episcopal Missionary on Standing Rock and later a judge in Sioux County. As far as I know, he learned Lakota and he recorded a lot of information on Lakota culture. His journals are really annoying to read---the handwriting is impossible. Someone--his daughter?--has transcribed some of the journals and the collection includes those typescripts. His poetry is pretty much romantic drivel but I think there may be some useful information in the journals.

I wonder if anyone has seen this and what you might think of it. LaDonna? "Bill of Property Lost in Whiterock battle, Sept. 3" It's from the Aaron McGaffey Beede papers: link to document: NDU 206 beedeB3 f 6 whitestone hill loses.pdf (52.17 KB)
