The Briant H. Stringham Collection is contained in twenty-three manuscript and storage boxes, plus six scrapbooks. Processing of the papers was undertaken, in large part, by Jeff Smith. In organizing the material, a topical arrangement was chosen to provide easy access to its information. All correspondence not directly related to a topical category was compiled as a separate category titled General Correspondence. As with the topical arrangement, the correspondence is organized alphabetically and chronologically.
Collection contains primarily correspondence and subject files.
Also includes diaries, sheep business materials, and memorabilia. Photographs other than those permanently attached in scrapbooks were removed from the collection and incorporated with the main photograph file of the Department of Special Collections and Archives. All such photographs are clearly marked to identify the donor. B.H. Stringham received his early education from the Mormon operated Uintah Stake Academy at Vernal. Afterward he attended Brigham Young University in Provo.
