Description: The Anthony F. C. Wallace Papers are a vast collection of materials relating to Wallace's work at the intersection of anthropology, psychology, and history. See the finding aid for a detailed discussion of Wallace's long and varied career, and for an itemized list of the collection's contents. Though further research might yield more results, four items directly relating to the Shawnees have been identified. All concern Wallace's work as a researcher and expert witness on behalf of Native American land claims. In Series IX. Indian Claims, there are four folders labeled as follows: "Shawnee Indians--Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma, et. al. vs. the United States of America, Docket No. 335" (1951), "Shawnee Indians--Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma, et. al. vs. the United States of America, Docket 335: Ohio Trial Memoranda" (1953), "Shawnee Indians--Notes," and "Shawnee Indians--Tribal Histories."
