Scope and Content
From the Collection:
The collection is divided into two series: Lansing Bloom Personal Papers/AGI Research and the John Gregory Bourke Papers.
The Bloom series, which is box 1 of the collection, contains Bloom's private papers and descriptive lists of hundreds of documents pertaining to Northern Mexico, New Mexico and Southwest history from the AGI that Bloom located and copied. The numbers in the lists that he assigned to the documents also appear on the photostats of the documents themselves in the AGI - AGN collection at UNM. Box 1 also contains a transcription by Bloom of a document from AGI: Justicia, Legajo 339 and various notes on this section of the archive, focusing on Francisco Váizquez de Coronado, the Governor of Nueva Galicia and Cristóbal de Oñate, the Lieutenant Governor. In addition, it includes family, personal and professional correspondence, University of New Mexico Faculty Senate business and offprints of several of his research publications.
The John Gregory Bourke series contains manuscript, publication material and diary transcriptions related to John Gregory Bourke, soldier and ethnologist, and many Indian groups in the West and Southwest. Six index card boxes provide an index to the Bourke diaries and clippings.
Bourke's field notes contain rich details about his military service in the West; studies of Indian and Hispanic villages; comments on U.S. military and political leaders; life at the Southwest forts; Quaker Indian peace efforts; and railroad and open road travels in New Mexico, Colorado, California, Texas, Utah, Nebraska, Idaho, and Wyoming. He wrote about the Apaches, Mohave, Hopi, Coconinos, Zuni, Shoshone, Hualpai, Navajos, Utes, and Pueblos. He met Crook, Clum, Kautz, Cooke, Brigham Young, Cushing, Gould, Bishop Lamy, Governor Wallace, and John Menaul. He saw and described Ft. Craig, Ft. Yuma, Ft. Wingate, Ft. Defiance, Ft. Garland, Ft. Bliss, Prescott, San Carlos, Beale Springs, the Rio Puerco, Rio Grande and Rio Verde, Tucson, San Xavier de Bac, Santa Fe, Santa Cruz, the Cerrillos hills and mines, Tesuque, Albuquerque, Taos, Acoma, Laguna, Isleta, Sandia, El Paso, Pojoaque, Santa Clara, San Juan, San Ildefonso, Nambe, Raton, Embudo, Espanola, San Felipe, Cochiti, Zia, Jemez, Bernalillo, Santa Ana, Pena Blanca, Socorro, Senecu, the San Luis Valley, Ft. Lewis, Durango, Antonito, Chama, San Francisco, California, Salt Lake City, Omaha, Topeka, Chicago, and Denver.
The John Gregory Bourke materials were previously housed as their own collection, John Gregory Bourke Diaries. They were originally donated with the Lansing Bloom Papers, and thus are now back in the collection from whence they came.
