Miguel A. Otero, Jr./Katherine Stinson Otero - RE Stinson, Barbara, 1937-48
File — Box: 3, Folder: 27
Scope and Content
From the Collection:
This collection consists of three topical segments: Katherine Stinson's aviation career, Miguel Otero's political and legal career, and collected papers and manuscripts of his father Governor Miguel A. Otero, all ranging from the mid 1850s to 1985. The core of the collection are the correspondence files of Otero and Stinson and of Gov. Otero (Boxes 1-6). While Gov. Otero's papers are separated from Otero-Stinson's (Box 6), it was too difficult to separate Katherine Stinson's correspondence from Miguel Otero's. Stinson-Otero correspondence is one segment (Boxes 1-5), although topical order has been attempted.
Boxes 7-19 contain non-correspondence items. The material in Boxes 7-8 reflects Stinson's career as a pilot and enhances the history of aviation in general. This segment also houses Otero's career in New Mexico politics and law. Otero kept notes on his connections to Bronson Cutting, his career as Attorney General of New Mexico as well as notes and records of his judicial and legal career.
These boxes also contain material Otero kept of his father, Gov. Otero, relating to early territorial New Mexico history, to Otero family history and to his father's publications.Material documenting his career during World War II in the Judge Advocate General's Office is in Box 9.
Boxes 10-12 hold legal and personal legal size items and reflect basically the same topical scope as boxes 7-8: Stinson's aviation career, records and notes relating to Otero's legal and judicial career, legal documents pertaining to Katherine Stinson and Miguel A. Otero. Papers pertaining to the territorial period, Gov. Otero's legal papers, as well as to the Otero family are in box 12, as are newspaper clippings spanning from the territorial period to the mid-20th century.
Gov. Otero's manuscripts are in Box 13. Boxes 14-19 hold miscellaneous items of Stinson, Otero, and Gov. Otero, including judicial note books, books and booklets, trophies, cooking recipes and taxation and banking papers of the three parties involved. Oversize items, photographic and architectural items have been transferred to map cases, CSWR Pictorial Collections and the Meem Archives, respectively.
Materials in English, Japanese, Chinese, and Spanish.
