Series: Discovery
Scope and Content Note: Photocopied documents collected from various sources, mainly the National Archives, folder labels include the reel and frame numbers of documents, and some other information on a source's location. Documents are in chronological groupings, but years are often repeated. It is unknown which portion of the case these documents were used in. The bulk of the documents are from the National Archives series: Annual Report of the Commissioner of the Office of Indian Affairs (ARCOIA), Letters sent by the Office of Indian Affairs, and Letters received by the Office of Indian Affairs. Box 7 contains some articles from the Shawano County Advocate and Shawano Evening Leader.
