In the "Algonkian" section, "Classification of Algonkin languages" (item A.1) provides a list of Algonquian languages and bands, showing which are dormant and which are extant and approximate number of speakers as of 1935. This item includes an attached note of Edward Sapir to Morris Swadesh on revision in classification of Wiyot and Yurok.

Description: In 1958, with the publication of the article “Algonkian-Ritwan: The End of a Controversy”, Mary Haas used her materials on Wiyot, Yurok, and Algonquian languages to make a case for their genetic relationship. There are therefore many Wiyot-Yurok comparisons present throughout the collection, especially lexical slip files in Series 9. Much is derived from the work of Karl V. Teeter, to which correspondence with Ives Goddard (Series 1) and others alude. Wiyot also appears at the end of a field notebook from 1966, during which time Haas was conducting small documentations of Californian languages (Series 2).

One is a single notebook (item A7.2) recorded by Edward Sapir from 1927, which contains vocabularies, paradigms, and texts recorded at the Hupa Reservation. Also in this section, there is an undated short vocabulary (item A7.1) recorded by Freeland and de Angulo from speaker Robert Nat from Lower Klamath River. In the "Algonkian" section are two short items (A.1 and A.2) discussing Wiyot-Yurok classification, and in notebooks (item U.5) in the "Southern Paiute" section is a note on kinship terms.

Description: Mary Haas conducted fieldwork in the early 1950s on Yurok music and language, tapes of which can be found in Series 10, and a brief field notebook with “Mrs. Roberts” in Series 2. In 1958, with the publication of the article “Algonkian-Ritwan: The End of a Controversy”, Mary Haas used her materials on Yurok, Wiyot and Algonquian languages to make a case for their genetic relationship. The vast majority of the remaining Yurok materials in Mary Haas' collection relate to this, including extensive comparative and standalone lexical card files (Series 9) and some correspondence (Series 1).
