Studio portrait of Henry A. Russell.

Studio portrait of Chauncey Yellow Robe (also known as Timber Yellow Robe) wearing school uniform.

Studio portrait of Juan Antonio Chama.

A handwritten caption along the side of the image probably reads: Juan Antonio Chama. What appears to be a date is also written along the side. It seems to be "3/79" but Chama didn't arrive until 1884, so that isn't possible. 

The printed caption reads: ETADLEUH DOANMOE, KIOWA. Taken prisoner in 1875 and sent to Ft. Marion, Fla.; was released in /1878; spent one year at Hampton Institute, Va.; entered Carlisle 1879. In 1882 married Tone-adle-mah, an educated girl of his own tribe, and reentered to the Indian Territory. Served as Helper in the School an Interpreter. In 1888 was appointed by the Presbyterian Board as a missionary among the Kiowas, but died soon after, having lived an exemplary life and exerted a good influence ence among his associates.

Studio portrait of Alex Manabove and Little Chief, one wearing a star-shaped pin. 

Note: If the interpretation of the handwritten caption is correct, it is not clear who Little Chief is. There was a student named Little Chief, but he left the school in 1880. This photograph may document a later visit of a Cheyenne chief named Little Chief (documented in the student newspaper).

Note: This is probably James Y. Miller.

Studio portrait of Joarclores, an Arapaho chief.

Note: The caption for this image identifies the sitter only as an Arapaho chief. A name is provided in the National Anthropological Archives glass plate negative (Joalloras) and in another copy of this image from the Cumberland County Historical Society (13A-14-04) where it is either Joarclores or Joactoras. None of these names may be correct. 

Studio portrait of Ai-sia-tiw-me (Comanche John). 

The Cumberland County Historical Society has two copies of this image: PA-CH1-095b and 13A-14-03. Their description states that this person was also known as Roan Horse, Apache, but that information is not included with the original caption for the version in the album. 

Note: A researcher has indicated that Comanche John was actually Comanche, but that he had run away to Mescalero Apache in 1879.
