Fort Mcdermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribe, Nevada Office of the Tribal Chairman
Fort McDermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribe, Nevada Office of the Tribal Chairman The Honorable Billy A. Bell, Chairman President of the Inter-Tribal Council of Nevada Before the INDIAN LAW AND ORDER COMMISSION January 13, 2012 Scottsdale, Arizona INDIAN LAW AND ORDER COMMISSION FIELD HEARING Talking Stick Hotel, Salt River Indian Reservation – Scottsdale, Arizona January 13, 2012 Testimony of the Honorable Billy A. Bell, Tribal Chairman of the Fort McDermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribe and President of the Inter-Tribal Council of Nevada Good morning Mr. Chairman and members of the Commission. I am Billy A. Bell, Tribal Chairman of the Fort McDermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribe, and also the President of the Inter-Tribal Council of Nevada. I come before the Commission to give testimony on behalf of my Tribe and the Inter-Tribal Council of Nevada member tribes, on issues of law and order – a perspective from the Nevada tribes. The Fort McDermitt Indian Reservation straddles Nevada and Oregon with a major highway running through it, and is 75 miles north of Winnemucca, Nevada. The reservation was traditional seasonal homeland to the Paiute, Shoshone and Bannock peoples, when it was occupied by the cavalry for a military fort in the 1860’s until it closed in the 1890’s. The fort was provided to the Indians after the Bannock War. Many Indians were force marched and removed to other reservations in Idaho, Washington, Oregon or other Nevada reservations. There are 27 Nevada reservations and tribes comprising the Inter-Tribal Council. The Fort McDermitt Tribe does not have a BIA or tribal detention facility; our inmates are held at the Humboldt County Detention Center in Winnemucca. -
Jeanne Wier and the Nevada Historical Society, 1904-1950
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles “We Seek to Be Patient”: Jeanne Wier and the Nevada Historical Society, 1904-1950 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Information Studies by Su Kim Chung 2015 © Copyright 2015 by Su Kim Chung ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION “We Seek to Be Patient:” Jeanne Wier and the Nevada Historical Society, 1904-1950 by Su Kim Chung Doctor of Philosophy in Information Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Mary Niles Maack, Chair This dissertation focuses on Jeanne Wier and the years she was active in shaping the Nevada Historical Society (NHS), 1904-1950. It is the story of the institution as it unfolded over four decades, but more broadly, it considers how Wier shaped what Amanda Laugesen has framed as the idea of “public historical culture” in the state of Nevada. This culture not only included the collection of documents and books to provide a basis for research, but also the collection of relics for a museum that sought to be a showplace of Nevada’s history for her citizens. It includes the means by which the NHS performed outreach to make Nevada’s history a viable part of the community through anniversaries and celebrations and its efforts at preserving historic sites. The study considers the tension that arose in Wier’s attempts to have the NHS fulfill these different roles and the challenges that she faced in obtaining financial, governmental and community support for the institution. An important consideration of the ii dissertation is its evaluation of how successful Wier was in achieving the goals of the NHS regarding its mission of developing a historical consciousness within the state and its citizenry. -

Loving Empire: Intimacy and Expansion in U.S. Women’s Historical Writing, 1880-1900 by Amanda Healy A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (English and Women’s Studies) in the University of Michigan 2018 Doctoral Committee: Professor Sandra Gunning, Chair Associate Professor Cari Carpenter, University of West Virginia Professor June Howard Assistant Professor Victor Mendoza Amanda K. Healy [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0003-2224-1801 © Amanda K. Healy 2018 Dedication For my family, of origin and of choice ii Acknowledgments All academic work is contingent to varying extents; mine is above all the product of the love, labor, tenderness, and patience of too many people to name here. I’ve given it my best shot. First and foremost I thank my incredible committee: June Howard has overseen my journey here from offer of admission to defense with generosity and patience, holding me to high standards and assuring me I was up to the task. Victor Mendoza was generous enough to take on the work of mentoring me while he was also newly arrived to the University of Michigan; as his research assistant I learned how to dig deep and think creatively, and also made my first foray into the archival work that would shape my dissertation so profoundly. Michelle McClellan served on my committee only briefly but had a deep impact, affirming my vision, of my project and my future, despite their unconventional natures. Finally, Sandra Gunning, advisor is far too small a word for the role she has played in my life over the past eight years. -

(From Gae Canfield Sarah Winnemucca of the Northern Paiutes) About the Author Sarah Winnemucca Hopkins while lecturing in Boston Oil-tinted photograph (Granger Collection) Sarah Winnemucca Hopkins, born as Thocmentony “Shell Flower” “somewhere near 1844” at Humboldt Sink, Nevada (then claimed by México as part of Territorio de Alta California). Her parents were Poito (Chief Winnemucca or Old Winnemucca) and Tuboitonie. Her maternal grandfather was Captain Truckee “Good,” a Winnemucca Northern Paiute chief who fought with John C. Frémont during the Mexican-American war. Her grandfather introduced her to California and Nevada immigrants who taught her English. As she also knew Spanish and several Native American languages, she served for an interpreter for the military and various Indian agencies, and also worked as a teacher’s aid. The Bannock war in 1878 proved disastrous for the Winnemucca band. Although only a minority was involved in the uprising, and most fought against it, the entire band was relocated during winter to the Yakima Reservation, Washington state. The Indian Agent there kept food and clothing intended for them. The Winnemucca people approached Sarah during this period asking for her to travel to Washington, D.C.
