The Manuscripts Department of the Kansas State Historical Society houses collections of papers relating to individuals, businesses, and organizations. We view these collections as "private papers", as opposed to materials in the Archive Division which are generated in the course of official state business. Collectionsof private papers can contain an unlimited variety of materials from correspondence, diaries or journals, financial records, account books and ledgers, minutes of organization meetings, deeds, land patents, to notes collected in historical research. Most items in manuscript collections are regarded as unique or one-of-a-kind documents.
This guide is intended to be an overview of significant quantities of letters, papers, articles, and other records relating to Indian tribes and individuals found within the various collections of the Manuscripts Department Inclusive dates and quantities refer to the entire collection when given. The term significant quantity is defined as five or more documents within a cataloged collection, a collection in which mention of Indian-related material is made in the finding aid to the collection, or collections cross-referenced in other collections containing Indian papers.
References in this guide follow the same three-fold division as the papers held by the department: (1)individual collections, usually named for the person whose papers comprise the bulk of the collection; (2)"Miscellaneous" collections, also the papers of an individual or family, but smaller in quantity; and (3)"History" collections, whose primary usefulness relates to the subjects or geographical areas named; there is a "History" collection for each Kansas Indian tribe, as well as counties and other subject areas.
Additional sources of information on Indians are the microfilmed manuscript records housed in the society's microfilm reading room. These copies are of records the owners allowed the society to copy while retaining the originals or copies of records owned by other repositories.
Microfilm marked with (ILL) may be borrowed from the department through interlibrary loan. Requests should be addressed to:
