ARCHAEOLOGY AND CULTURAL RESOURCES IN THE GRAND CANYON REGION Anonymous (continued) OVERVIEW. This part includes items that relate to archaeological surveys and studies of human remains, artifacts, and cultures during the period from early human inhabitation of the Grand Canyon region to recent historical activities of the 16th to 20th centuries, including historical-structures reports. RELATED MATERIAL PART 3. THE NEW YORK TIMES for additional items that relate to this part of the bibliography PART 11, SECTION 3. LOWER COLORADO RIVER REGION—ARCHAEOLOGY AND CULTURAL RESOURCES for selected material relating to the lower Colorado River region more generally. Note that citations regarding the archaeology and cultural resources of the Lake Mead region are included in Part 11, Section 3. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ NOTE FOR PART 16 SOME items dated during and after the later-20th century may be available to the public only in redacted versions, wherein culturally sensitive or specific geographical data are removed or xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx obliterated. Unredacted versions will be in files accessible to qualified researchers and administrators. If no note regarding redacted parts appears with the document, or if there is no such note with its citation here, it does not necessarily mean that the document as seen or as available does not have data redacted. One may assume that modern publications in scholarly serials already have been written in such a fashion that sensitive or restricted geographical or cultural information is left out. Pagination for some such reports as listed herein may omit additional pages or sections that did not appear in the redacted version that was cited for the bibliography. Documents or citations that may have been seen by the compilers that pertain to wholly restricted documents, not available publicly, are not cited in this bibliography. While thus not properly compiling the body of work of individuals, organizations or agencies within the scope of this bibliography, the general unavailability of a document awards no merit for inclusion within a work such as this one, which identifies publicly available materials. (As with documents that had been denoted as “classified”, “restricted” or “secret” for purposes of national security, but which later are reclassified for public release, only then are these and comparably secured documents included in this bibliography.) The words “archaeology” and “archeology” are spelled as used in document titles. Included in this section are pertinent U.S. National Park Service summary records for historic sites, which include the Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS), Historic American Engineering Record (HAER), and Historic American Landscapes Survey (HALS) series. Most of these are accessible online through the Library of Congress website; and there, many of them are supplemented by large numbers of photographs and other graphical material. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 7724 1535 The Grand Canon 2018 PART 16.

    The Dentists’ Sabbatical on the Grand River in 1897 James Edwin Miller (1857-1945) 40 and Oro DeGarmo (O.D.) Babcock (1873-1945) 24 By Mike Milligan In the early years of boating on the Green and Colorado Rivers there tended to be a bit of jealous rivalry among a number of the boaters who made history. They wanted their boating excursions documented according to their perspective, while sometimes questioning the exploits of others. Examples include whether James White truly was the first through the Grand Canyon in 1867? Questions whether the three men who left Major Powell’s expedition in 1869 were cowards or did divisiveness split them up at Separation Rapid in the Grand Canyon? During the 1889 DCC& P Railroad survey did surveyor Frank Clarence Kendrick portage Westwater (Hades/Granite) Canyon out of fear while surveying the Colorado (Grand) River from Grand Junction to the Confluence with the Green River? Their experiences in the Grand Canyon caused a few of the boaters to become Colorado and Green River historians as they diligently gathered as much information while it was fresh from living boaters and other sources for those that they could not locate or who had died. The preeminent historians were Frederick S. Dellenbaugh and Robert Brewster Stanton. Both men were part of two of the earliest boating expeditions down the Grand Canyon. They wrote biographies of documenting their historical voyages that were published.1 There were some controversial opinions regarding each other’s expedition that is noted above. Later, Otis R. “Dock” Marston would assume the role as historian when he took up the mantle and gathered volumes more of data that is commonly used by current authors who write books about the Grand Canyon today.

Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and ot r research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between the University of California and Helen R.
