content: PROVENIENCE NOTE: THE ACCESSION FILE FOR #E6326-6361 NOTES ONLY THAT THE OBJECTS WERE SENT FROM FORT STEVENSON IN 1868. THE COLLECTORS, DRS. GRAY & MATHEWS, WERE POSTED TO THIS FORT IN 1867-68 (IN PRESENT-DAY NORTH DAKOTA), BUT PRIOR TO THAT, DR. MATHEWS HAD SERVED AT FORT BERTHOLD (WHICH LAY ONLY A FEW MILES FROM FORT STEVENSON), AS WELL AS AT FORT UNION FURTHER NORTH ON THE UPPER MISSOURI RIVER (ON THE MONTANA/NORTH DAKOTA BORDER). NEAR THERE, AT FORT BUFORD, DR. GRAY HAD BEEN POSTED IN 1867, AND IN 1866 SERVED AT FORT RANDALL (IN PRESENT-DAY SOUTHERN SOUTH DAKOTA). PRECISE PROVENIENCE IS THEREFORE UNCERTAIN FOR THESE OBJECTS; "FORT BERTHOLD," "FORT STEVENSON," "UPPER MISSOURI RIVER," OR SIMPLY "DAKOTA TERRITORY" INCONSISTENTLY APPEAR IN THE CARD CATALOG LISTINGS FOR THIS SERIES. (CFS/1995).
