Description: Two field notebooks, a report on fieldwork, and 27 reel-to-reel tapes and cassettes of recordings of the Mississippi Choctaw language made in 1972 and 1973. Most of the tapes match identified sections in the field notebooks. The collection includes texts, and lexica. Field notebooks describe where people are from (largely Pearl River, Mississippi), but it is not clear if the recordings were made here.  (NOTE: Part of this material has been digitized and can be accessed online for free by users not physically at the APS Library through a login and password.
