Studio portrait of Susie Metoxen wearing school uniform.

Note: Handwritten caption along side of image: "Susie Metoxen, Mar. 1888." 

A student, wearing a hat and holding an axe or hatchet, standing in the courtyard of the workshops. 

The written caption says: "Andrew Brohme, an Apache Indian, 21 years old, learning to be a carpenter at the Indian School at Carlisle, Penn. June 10, 1890." 

It seems almost certain that this is student Matthew Broom, a member of the Apache Nation, who was at the school at this time and who would have been the right age, and whose student file says he was training in carpentry.

Lucy and Aggie were sisters. Lucy was the older sister and is probably seated on the left. 

A handwritten caption along the side of the image reads: Lucy and Aggie Cloud, Dec. 1890.

Studio portrait of five male students (all wearing school uniforms) and five female students. Previous cataloging interprets the caption as identifying the students as Pawnee, and naming three of them as Rose Howell, Phoebe Howell, and Ann Townsend. Rose and Phoebe were both Pawnee students. There is no student named Ann Townsend so this may actually be Sam Townsend, referring to Pawnee student Samuel Townsend.

The caption on the Cumberland County Historical Society's copy of the image identifies them as "Crows from the Crow Agency, Montana, who entered the Carlisle Indian School in 1890."

Previous cataloging for this image interprets part of the caption scratched on the plate as giving a date of 1897.
