Visual Materials
White and others in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and Yosemite. Images include horseback riding, scenery, cabins, surveyors, logging, and captive bear cubs. Some have captions titled "The Pass" and "Sierras" by White. One image of four Native American women sitting with a white woman is captioned by White: "One of the white Indians, Maude Cheppo - the other myself." Research shows that a Maud Chepo is listed in Madera County in the Census of Non-reservation California Indians, 1905-1906 (C. E. Kelsey; Robert Fleming Heizer, 1971).
