Scope and Content
From the Collection:
Chaco Canyon, from the summer field session near Pueblo Bonito. Part of the Chaco Canyon Old Timers Reunion Oral History Project Pictorial Collection PICT 000-579.
The Chaco Canyon Old Timers Reunion Oral History Project consists of publicity, background materials and bibliographic sources, correspondence, questionnaires, and four interviews. Jean Markley, who lived in Chaco from 1922-1934 was interviewed by Michael Miller. She was the daughter of the first volunteer custodian at the Park, and during her tenure at the Park, was a part time guide for visitors, worked in Pueblo Bonito's small museum, and maintained a weather station and garage on Chaco Arroyo. She reminisces about her father, Gus (Chester Augustus Griffin). Wesley R. Hurt, was a participant in the UNM field school in Jemez in 1930. He was Edgar Hewett's chauffeur in the mid-1930's, and worked as a truck driver for the excavations in Jemez and at Chaco. Hurt was involved in building the field station at Chaco and helped with the archaeological survey and excavation. Hurt was interviewed by Rose Diaz. Alden Hayes ran errands at Chaco for Dr. Hewett in 1935, was student with the UNM field schools in 1936-37, and later became National Park Service research staff. The interview with Mr. Hayes was conducted by Marion Bell, and was interrupted and never completed. Emily Ross Mulloy, a student at the UNM field school in 1940-41, was also interviewed by Marion Bell.
There are four 60 minute cassette tape masters; the master tapes have been duplicated onto three 60 minute cassete tapes. Only the Wesley Hurt interview lasts longer than 30 minutes. Master cassette tapes are in B3; duplicates are in this collection.
Additional material was found and integrated into the collection in September 1999.
