This roll and minute book of the Daughters of Utah Pioneers belonged to Camp Arrowhead, in San Bernardino County, California. The majority of the entries were from the early 1960s. This volume includes each member by name, along with registration numbers, husband's initials, and months at which they were present in DUP meetings. Recorded in the minutes were announcements, discussions, financial reports, and motions of the meetings. In addition to usual business matters, history lessons and readings about pioneer history were common throughout the ledger. Highlights in this volume were visits from long-time president of DUP, Kate B. Carter. In one meeting on January 25, 1961, Carter discussed plans for the promotion of new camps in the area and methods for continued research and preservation of America's western heritage.

The collection consists of 21 volumes belonging to artist Charles Broughton from 1888 to 1944. Each volume is a combination of diary, journal, commonplace book, and sketchbook. The cross-hatching sketches, drawn by Broughton, are of animals, places, outdoor scenes, historical figures, and common people (perhaps Broughton knew them or came across the individuals and sketched them). Some of the sketches also relate to Broughton's travels, as well as the First and Second World Wars.
