Biographical Note
Stanley J. Morrow was born in Richland County, Ohio, on May 3, 1843, and moved to
Wisconsin early in his childhood. In 1861, he joined the 7th Wisconsin Volunteer
Infantry as a drummer. Morrow was then transferred into the Veteran Reserve and was
stationed at Point Lookout Prison in Maryland as an assistant to renowned Civil War
photographer Matthew B. Brady. Brady instructed Morrow in photography and the wet
plate process, which Morrow used throughout his career.
Upon exiting the war, Morrow married Isa Ketchum, and the couple moved to Yankton,
Dakota, around 1868. Morrow established a photography gallery there and taught Isa
the photographic process. When Morrow was away, Isa ran the gallery to fund his
photographic expeditions.
In 1876, Stanley Morrow met soldiers returning from General George A. Crook’s
expedition in pursuit of the Lakota Sioux and Cheyenne. Morrow photographed soldiers
reenacting scenes from the starvation march back to the Black Hills and from the
Battle of Slim Buttes, and photographed Sioux warriors captured in battle. Morrow
became post photographer at Fort Keogh in 1878 and later that year opened a gallery
at Fort Custer. In April 1879, while working as photographer at Fort Custer, he
accompanied Captain George K. Sanderson and a company of the 11th Infantry on an
expedition to Little Bighorn Battlefield to clear the field of animal bones and
remark the graves of fallen soldiers.
Stanley Morrow returned to Yankton in 1880, photographing local events including the
Great Flood of 1881.When Isa fell ill in 1882, the couple moved to Florida. Stanley
J. Morrow died in Dallas, Texas, on December 10, 1921.
This collection of 125 stereographs contains scenes in the Dakota and Montana
territories captured by Morrow between 1868 and 1881. It includes images of the
Little Bighorn Battlefield including the marking of graves (1879); Crow, Cheyenne,
Sioux, and Gros Ventre villages and portraits of individuals; views of soldiers
returned from General Crook’s expedition, including a soldier re-enacting shooting a
horse for food and captured Sioux Indians (1876); the Morrow family, home and studio
in Yankton, D.T., and steamboats (including the Helena) and an ice gorge from the
Great Flood of 1881; officers quarters and troops at Ft. Keogh; the Gates of the
Mountains, Prickly Pear Canyon, and other scenes in the vicinity of Helena,
Montana.
The stereographs are arranged into seven series: Series I. Custer’s Battlefield,
Series II. Indian Series, Series III. Crook’s Expedition Against Sitting Bull 1876,
Series IV. Miscellaneous, Series V. Local Series, Yankton, Series VI. General, and
Series VII. Crooks Expedition and the Black Hills. Series VIII. Great Ice Gorge
Yankton, April 1881. Series one through five, seven, and eight are Morrow’s series
titles, but include some stereographs on the same subjects which are not included in
Morrow’s series lists. Series VI. General contains images with no series labels that
do not fall under any previous series. This series contains two subseries: Subseries
I. Military and Subseries II. Other. The series are all ordered by the original
stereograph numbers, when possible, both at the series level and within each series.
Each item description includes the item ID, the original stereograph number and
title assigned by Morrow, any additional descriptive title in brackets, and the
title of the set in which the stereograph was issued.
