Census of the Northern Navajo Navajo Reservation, New Mexico, 1930: Volume I - Jeff Bowen

Descriere Census of the Northern Navajo Navajo Reservation, New Mexico, 1930: Volume I - Jeff Bowen

\n This series of the Northern Navajo from New Mexico for the years 1930-1935 contain both the bitter and the sweet. Today the Navajo have grown to become the largest Indian Nation in the United States (sweet) but not without the sacrifice (bitter) of those from their past. \n\n Though these censuses are very important, containing both Navajo and English names; though finding the National Archival record provides mostly Navajo names along with the Roll Number, Surname, Given Name, Tribe, Sex, Degree of Blood, Relation to Head of Household, Jurisdiction, Post Office, County, State, and Allotment Number. The descendants and researchers of the Navajo people both past and present can look upon these pages finding not only their ancestors but hopefully take pride in who they were and have become. The majority of people inside the borders of the Land and the Free need to read about the great pain the Navajo endured and died for so the present-day Navajo could live today. Between 1864-1868 two main characters of history General James H. Carleton and Colonel Christopher Kit Carson doled out one of the worst, Shock and Awe campaigns on an American Indian tribe in our history. A people that wanted to tend their livestock, grow their crops, raise their families and live in peace became a target of what seemed the pleasure of reprobates so they could abscond with what wasn't theirs. \n\n The Dine' suffered beyond belief. Driven into their own Trail of Tears by what seemed a conscienceless group of humans claiming to be Christian as well as civil seemed to be the farthest from it. This census series starts with an introduction that could bring you to tears and yet teach you what the Navajo people are really made of telling you in depth and with proper documentation about the attitudes and mental dispositions of those that forced the Navajo to make what in their history is called the Long Walk.... \n\n \n Also you will find a copy of the original Treaty of 1868, and a transcription of same, that allowed the Navajo to go back to their homes and leave the failed attempt at a reservation called the Bosque Redondo.\n
