Book excerpt: This series of the Northern Navajo from New Mexico for the years 1930-1935 contains both the bitter and the sweet. Today the Navajo have grown to become the largest Indian Nation in the United States (sweet) but not without the sacrifice (bitter) of those from their past. These censuses give very important names; both Navajo and English. The National Archival records provided mostly Navajo names along with each person's Roll Number, Surname, Given Name, Tribe, Sex, Degree of Blood, Relation to Head of Household, Jurisdiction, Post Office, County, State, and Allotment Number. The descendants and researchers of the Navajo people in the present can search through these pages finding not only their ancestors but also learn who they were and realize their amazing strength through struggle. Between 1864-1868 the Navajo lived through hardships history seems to have forgotten. The Navajo people just wanted to tend their livestock, grow their crops, raise their families and live in peace. The Dine' suffered beyond belief. Driven into their own "Trail of Tears". This census series starts with an introduction that includes an informed study as well as the story of a wonderful people that courageously faced true conflict that so many have never read about. These Native People had their history changed forever through what was called the "Long Walk".... Also you will find a copy of the original Treaty of 1868, and a transcription of same, that allowed the Navajo to go back to their homes and leave the failed attempt at a reservation called the Bosque Redondo. This 1931 Volume does also contain a limited number of Births, Deaths and Additions.
