Studio portrait of Sun Boy, a Kiowa chief. 

The school newspaper documents a visit by Sun Boy to the school in January 1885, but this photo appears to be from an earlier visit.

Studio portrait of ten male students all wearing school uniforms. The caption of the Cumberland County Historical Society version of this image states they came from the Omaha nation and arrived in August 1882. 

Records show twenty male students from the Omaha nation arriving at this time. It is possible that the other ten are the sitters in another image from the National Anthropological Archives (NAA_74310; Photo Lot 81-12 06908100).

Studio portrait of ten unidentified male students wearing school uniforms. 

Previous cataloging identifies them as from the Omaha nation. 

Twenty male Omaha students arrived in August of 1882. A portrait of ten of them was taken and identified as such (see Related Images), so it is possible that this group is the other ten students who arrived at that time. 

Studio portrait of seven unidentified male students and five unidentified female students with a white woman, presumably a teacher. 

Studio portrait of two unidentified male students in school uniforms.

Studio portrait of eleven female students in school uniforms. Caption information states they are from the Omaha nation and entered in 1882. If that is accurate, then they are probably Alice Springer, Jennie Mitchell, Mary Tyndall, Ettie Tyndall, Mary Hewitt, Etta Webster, Elsie Springer, Lettie Esau, Alice Fremont, Fannie Merrick, and Mamie Springer.

Studio portrait of a student identified as Alfred.

The caption reads: Alfred - 3

This is most likely Alfred Brown (Cheyenne, 1879-1883), but there is also a small chance it could be a student named Alfred who attended Carlisle a little later in the 1880s or 1890s.
