Scope and Contents
This is all that has been located (2/64) of a projected list, described on an earlier catalog card as follows: "Cherokee Personal Names: A list of the proper names employed among the Eastern Cherokees or extracted from copies of treaties or other documentary sources, with their correct Indian forms and with analyses and interpretations. There are about 600 such names. Prepared about 1888." The old card is marked in J. N. B. Hewittʹs hand, "Incomplete; not turned in September 29, 1908."
