Additional updates to this introduction were made as recently as May 2021. The research, selection, and arrangement in preparing this select list was done by Charlotte Palmer, who also wrote these introductory remarks in 1974. Separate inquiries about them should be as specific as possible, including names, dates, places, and other details. Many photographs of the American West are not included in this list. There are no known copyright restrictions for the photos listed here. To inquire about images within this list, please see the contact information below for the Still Picture Branch. Some entries appear under more than one State others could not be indexed by State. The index is arranged by State, the names of which usually are the same as their former territorial designations. In addition, the listings are arranged by subject-such as transportation, Native American life, military life, and mining-and thereunder chronologically. The name of the photographer together with the date of the item is given if available. Information following quoted captions and all captions without quotes has been provided by the compiler. Within quoted captions, bracketed material has been added by the compiler of this list. The captions in quotation marks are those of the photographer or the person who cared for the photographs before they came into the custody of the National Archives. At that time Arizona, the last of the contiguous 48 United States, was admitted to the Union. While the records of Federal agencies continue to document changes on the face of western America and the efforts toward effecting some kind of progress, an arbitrary cutoff date of 1912 has been used.
Listed below is a selection of photographs from the records of these agencies within the holdings of the Still Picture Branch at the National Archives. Some of these photographs have found their way into the National Archives as record materials of several Federal bureaus and offices, such as the Bureaus of Land Management (Record Group 49), Indian Affairs (Record Group 75), Public Roads (Record Group 30), Weather (Record Group 27), Agricultural Economics (Record Group 83), and Reclamation (Record Group 115) the Fish and Wildlife Service (Record Group 22), the Geological Survey (Record Group 57), Boundary and Claims Commissions and Arbitrations (Record Group 76), Office of the Chief of Engineers (Record Group 77), the Forest Service (Record Group 95), and the Signal Corps (Record Group 111). It is indeed a wonder that so many photographs have survived the hardships of the western experience, because early negatives were made of large glass plates. Private citizens and Government officials took the recently developed camera on their western adventures to record nature's curious sights and the marks that they made on the landscape. This transition from a "wild" western frontier into organized segments of a federal union is documented in photographs. The discovery of gold would soon draw thousands more across the country. The religious persecution of the Mormons had led them to begin their migration westward by this time. The West had long been explored and settled, however, the opportunity for legitimate land ownership along with other historic events caused a greater number of people to travel.

She has made an enormous paper fortune out of the company in the past three years, but she has also transformed it from an Irish player into one with a real shot at becoming a major European recruitment network.Cover photograph: A Pioneer Family in Loup Valley, Nebr., ca. While one could bang on at length about CPL's strengths and its NFI/PBT ratios and all that other gas, the real kicker here could be Anne Heraty's inability to rest on her laurels. Just the job for Anne Heraty and CPL expansionīARRY Dixon of Davy has bumped up his price target for CPL Resources to 810c, a healthy 20pc above the price the stock traded at following Monday's bumper results.
Still managed to get his way with the unions, mind. The Willie we saw during the week facing the cameras in London was a bit of a stunner. Walsh has been flying planes since he was a teen and until recently was quite happy to mix it on the soccer pitch.īut where are the specs? The ill-fitting suits? The who-cares haircut? To be fair, that image was always a little inaccurate as anyone who knows Willie will confirm - behind the placid exterior lurks a bit of a he-man. When Willie first shot to national prominence as surprise ceo of Aer Lingus, he looked like he had come straight out of some sort of cryogenic storage for bean counters. NOBODY can churl at a fella who uses the burgeoning success of his career to smarten himself up a little, and my oh my, has Williw Walsh been brushing up his public image.
