Content DescriptionReturn to Top

The Utah Association of Chinese History photograph collection contains images related to Utah's Chinese American community.

This collection was donated for an exhibit and came with labels. The exhibit was later donated to the archive, but there were some images that were labeled differently for the exhibit and the original donation. It is unclear if these labels were mixed up or if the original list was correct. The unidentified images in folder two could be any of the following people, but the lables were not matched to those images: Doctor Vincent Chen, Doctor Yanqi Tong, Doctor Jessie Fan, Doctor Wenxion Kuo, Doctor Feng Liu, Doctor Keming Zhou, Doctor Tangsheng Peng, and Doctor Zhiqiang Wang. If you can identify these people or the have other corrections, please contact the archive.
