18 Linear feet of shelf space
19 Boxes and 1 oversize drawer
The bulk of the Peck collection consists of sound
recordings, slides and photographs, field notes, transcriptions, manuscripts, and
correspondence documenting the Quileute people from 1969 to 1979.
Collection materials are in English,
Quileute, and Quinault
Charles Peck was born May 22, 1914, in Hazard, Kentucky. He graduated from West
Virginia University School of Forestry in 1939 and received a master's degree in
public administration and economics from the University of Colorado in 1963. In 1967
he joined the Agricultural Extension Service at Washington State University as an
Information Specialist. He served as a county extension agent for WSU in Cowlitz,
Mason and Spokane counties. In 1970 he produced a series of photographs expressing
the meaning of responsible land use management, with the Queets River basin serving
as the site for his study.
Elizabeth (Tuckwiller) Peck was born in 1918. She graduated from West Virginia
University with an A.B. in Music Education in 1939. She received her master's degree
in 1973 from Washington State University Department of Music. Elizabeth also taught
at the Queets-Clearwater school and was an avid seamstress.
In April of 1970 Charles and Elizabeth moved to Queets, Washington, for a planned
six-month sabbatical leave. Their six-month sojourn lasted 17 years. As Charles
said:
"Little did we know that the central issue of the sabbatical would swiftly gravitate
to trying to develop a comfortable and lasting rapport with the Quinault Indians of
Queets, and to learn something of their culture. We were to find such work often
sobering and difficult, but always exciting. We were to find trust developing
slowly. But finally were able to make friends with the generous and gifted people."
While in Queets they lived among the Pacific coast Native American tribes of
Washington state, documenting and recording their history and music. Elizabeth's
musical interests helped ease fears among tribal elders that their musical heritage
would, in short order, become irretrievably lost: she preserved and documented some
of this heritage in hundreds of hours of recorded material and in the work she did
for her master's thesis, "Songs of the Bogachiel." There she attempted to understand
the power of a family song from a Quileute point of view, focusing on the role of
song ownership.
Charles photographed a variety of subjects, but he especially enjoyed photographing
Indian children. He published some of those photos in an ABC book for children. His
photos have been displayed throughout the Northwest, including Portland and Seattle.
In addition to his photography he became known on the reservation for his
drum-making skills and as an avid fisherman.
The Peck collection consists of sound recordings (cassettes, reels and records),
slides and photographs, field notes, transcriptions, manuscripts, and
correspondence. The photographs include photos of Indian people, their activities,
and the environmental features of their tribal regions. The bulk of the collection
documents the Quileute people from 1969 to 1979, when, according to Peck, "the last
vestiges of their culture were disappearing."
In Series I: Tapes and Cassettes, explanatory notes and transcriptions of the tapes
are often included. Here is an example of the code used by Ms. Peck: M.W. -T1-S1@S2
- Aug. 4, 1971 - M3 3/4 - Qts@Qts - ETP. The first letters are the initials or
symbol given to the person taped. (See the list below.) The "T1" stands for tape
(reel) number one. The letter "C" in this position would indicate a cassette. "S1"
and "S2" indicates that there is recorded material on both side one and side two.
Following is the date when the recording took place. The speed at which the tape
plays is indicated first by an "M" followed by the speed. The letters prior to the
"@" symbol indicate where the person being taped is from and the letters following
the "@" symbol indicate where the recording was made. In the example given, Mary
Williams is from Queets and the recording was taped at Queets. The last set of
letters represents who made the recording (in nearly every case this is Elizabeth T.
Peck).

Series III: Reference Essays and Articles includes photocopied excerpts of articles
on Indian culture as well as relevant correspondence and notes.
Series IV: General contains a bound copy of Elizabeth's thesis and research materials
(notes, rough drafts, interviews, articles, and song information). Also included are
newspaper clippings, correspondence files, and information about Indian culture and
activities.
Series V: Teaching Materials contains materials used by Elizabeth while teaching at
the Queets-Clearwater school, including stories written by Charles. Additionally, it
contains the scripts to the slide series put together by Charles.
Series VI: Environmental Materials includes a few articles on local vegetation as
well as the land layout of the Peck acreage on the Hoh reservation.
Series VII: Diaries consists of the diaries of Charles Peck from 1972-1985.
Series VIII: Photography consists of slides taken by Charles Peck, enlarged color
photos, photos by date, storyboard photos and texts, general photos, and oversized photos. The
storyboard photos and texts were originally on large cardboard posters made by
school children; however, for preservation purposes they were removed. In some
instances both the proofs and negatives and/or contact sheets exist, although
occasionally only one of these is extant.
The collection is arranged into eight series. The tapes in Series I are arranged
alphabetically by person or topic and subsequently according to the code used by
Elizabeth Peck to identify the tapes. The Reference Essays and Articles series is
arranged alphabetically by author or subject. The Photography series is arranged
into several sub-series by material type.
This collection is open and available for research use.
Copyright restrictions apply. The Leila Fisher audio recordings may not be reproduced
without the permission of her family (please contact the repository for details).
The Helma Ward recordings may not be reproduced.
[Item description]
Peck Collection of Northwest Coast Indian Life, 1958-2000 (Cage 671)
Manuscripts, Archives, and Special Collections, Washington State University Libraries, Pullman, WA.
Charles and Elizabeth Peck gave their papers to Washington State University Libraries
in three installments in February and September of 1989 and in April of 1990. In
2001, Elizabeth Peck donated additional photographs, papers, and artifacts to the
collection.
Anna S. Vogt processed the collection in the summer of 1999. The photographs and
papers were added at the end of the collection by Francesca Pena under the
supervision of Trevor Bond, Special Collections Librarian.
Fifty-four books and one box of gardening materials were separated from this
collection. The artifacts (primarily drums and woven baskets) were processed
separately as the Peck Collection of Pacific Northwest Coast Indian Artifacts, circa 1970s
(Cage 671a).
This collection is indexed under the following headings in the online
catalog. Researchers desiring materials about related topics, persons, or

every beer bottle set up on stumps around his show in the woods. He
turned in his tracks as he pulled the trigger, shooting with the
pistol held just above his belt, pointing it, getting off shots
about two seconds apart. Frank was almost as handy with the revolver
but he liked to brag on Cal's, and took pride in it. (5 prints and

Cutting out a drum head from a fresh
deer rawhide.
George Jackson, Queets, cuts the rawhide with kitchen scissors. The
hide was "fisted" off the deer carcass to produce a skin with little
or no flesh or fat attached. The skin was then put in a tub of water
for several days until the hair slipped easily. When the hair
slipped easily, the hide was thrown over a smooth pole and both
sides scraped with a dull butcher knife. When the hair is removed,
and all the excess tissue is scraped from the flesh side of the
hide, the resulting rawhide is as smooth and supple as velvet. It is
then easily applied to the drum frame. (one print and negatives)

long. (one print and negative)
