Manuscripts
These eight items are made up of handwritten notes regarding publications in various American Indian languages including Mohawk, Creek, and others. They are written by several different people and may be related to Henry Rowe Schoolcraft's book A bibliographical catalogue of books, translations of the Scriptures, and other publications in the Indian tongues of the United States, published in 1849 (although the notes were not written by Schoolcraft). The entires include books by missionary John Eliot, missionary David Zeisberger, and Mohawk military leader Joseph Brant, and others. The entry often includes other information about the book such as publication date and printer.
