A Guide to Cherokee Documents in the Northeastern United States

This bibliography attempts complete coverage of manuscript collections on the Cherokee in the Northeastern portion of the U.S.--Chicago and Madison east to Philadelphia. Its annotations list most names of people, whether Cherokee or non-Cherokee, mentioned in the annotated documents, and most place names, making a particular attempt to annotate and index the more obscure people and places. The author has given particular attention to compiling a thorough index in order to help researchers to discover quickly which libraries contain materials on their topics. Index entries run five to twenty per document, for a total of 6,257 documents.
