Biographical NoteReturn to Top
James Willard Schultz (1859-1947) lived in and wrote about the northwestern portion of Montana now included within the Blackfeet Reservation and Glacier National Park. In 1877, at the age of 18, he traveled from his birthplace in Boonville, New York to Fort Benton, Montana Territory. He became interested in American Indians, and lived for many years with the Blackfeet Indians as an accepted member of their nation. Drawing upon his experiences on the western frontier he later wrote thrilling and colorful books and articles to make his living as an author. His success was notable in his own time, and many of his books remain in print.

Series 4: PhotographsReturn to Top
Photographs taken or collected by James Willard Schultz of family and research interests. The photographs were initially processed by assigning numbers to duplicate prints and renumbering all prints with the beginning of each folder, with each folder representing broad subject groupings. These subject groupings have been retained, but the prints have been given sequential numbers which span the entire collection to aid in their identification. Occasionally the prefix "n" has been added to a print number which indicates that a negative is available. Negatives, which have been given the same number as their corresponding prints, have been placed in folders 6-10 of box 10. Those negatives that had no corresponding print or are otherwise unidentified have been placed in folders 11 and 12, and are not numbered. Duplicate prints have been placed in folders 13-16. Oversize prints numbered #214, 349, 374, 375, and 376, have been removed from the collection for storage elsewhere. Subjects represented in the photographs include Arapaho, Blackfeet, Blood, Shoshoni and Kutenai Indians; James Willard Schultz and family portraits and snapshots; Glacier and Waterton Lakes National Parks; the filming of Suzanne of the Mounties; historic views of Fort Benton, Montana and South Pass City, Wyoming. Photographers represented include H.T. Cowling and T.J. Hileman of Kalispell, Montana. NEW: "Online database for photograph access."
