Description: The Klallam materials in the ACLS collection consist of three items in the "Clallam" section of the finding aid. The earliest is a Klallam vocabulary from 1888 (item S2f.1), recorded by Franz Boas, with some comparison with Lkwungen ("Songish"). Two later documents are linguistic notes and vocabulary (items S2f.2 and S2f.3), focusing in part on diminutive and plural forms. One is recorded from "Mrs. Mahone" (Rosa Mahone?), a Klallam (nəxʷsƛ̕ay̕əm) woman residing in Neah Bay. This and another item were previously identified as being recorded by Boas. The handwriting does not match Boas and there is no record of him being in the area in 1917. The recorder appears to Leo Frachtenberg, who was working with Quileute people at nearby La Push, Washington at that time.

Description: The Quileute collection in the ACLS collection consists of a large body of materials located primarily in the "Quileute" section of the finding aid. These materials were recorded primarily by Albert Reagan, Leo Frachtenberg, and Manuel Andrade. Reagan was an Indian agent and teacher at the Quileute Day School. His materials (item W3a.10, "Quileute ethnology"), dated from 1908-1913, primarily include drawing made by students at the Quileute Day School. These images include pencil and ink sketches, color crayon drawings, watercolors, and gelatin silver prints of utensils, canoes, drums, rattles, toys, arrows, masks, totems, and decorative patterns. Frachtenberg's materials date from roughly 1915 to 1922 and contain detailed ethnographic and linguistic information, split up into several different listed items. Andrade's work followed shortly after Frachtenberg and concerns primarily linguistic information and additional stories. Arthur Howeattle is a prominent Quileute consultant for some of these items. Some additional materials comparing the Quileute and Chemakum languages can be found in the "Chimakum" section of the finding aid (items W3b.1, W3b.2, and W3b.4), as well as comparisons of Quileute and Nuu-chah-nulth in the "Nootka" section of the finding aid (item W2a.13).
