Description of Material

The collection consists of the papers of Beth W. Heimann. The papers have genealogical value as births, marriages, and deaths are recorded but no original documentation is present. The papers are primarily index cards with historical information about teachers, missionaries, and their families that worked with assorted Indian tribes primarily from 1820 to 1864. The collection was assembled in the 20th century about activities that occurred in the time period from 1820 to 1864. Heimann also collected historical quotes from Indian leaders about issues of the time period such as the civil war, value of education, and white men. Church and school information printouts of the American Board Commissioners for Foreign Missions Cherokee Missionaries from 1820 to 1860 also are in the collection. Heimann cited the source of her information from the American Board of Commissioners which is not part of our collection. The collection is in the original order of Beth W. Heimann.
