A collection of approximately 2,100 items from 1853 to 1946, which contains letters, manuscripts, 39 diaries, documents, and drawings related to the life and activities of William Henry Weinland, Caroline Yost Weinland, and the extended Weinland family. The materials focus on their missionary work for the Moravian Church in Alaska and on the Morongo Indian Reservation near Banning, California. Correspondents represented in the collection include Samuel M. Brosius (writing on behalf of the Indian Rights Association), Paul De Schweinitz, and Amelia Stone Quinton. Two separate series in the collection include the Rock family letters from 1911 to 1916, which were written from an Alaskan mission, and the Gilman family papers from 1853 to 1946, which include correspondence, land papers, and historical notes on the Banning area.
