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.

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.

Previous cataloging indicates that part of the handwritten caption on this plate may be Alex. 

Studio portrait of Sowcea Kinery [?] and Samuel Keryte, both wearing school uniforms. Keryte is definitely the student standing at right.

Note: The identification of Kinery is a guess based on interpreting the handwritten caption, and the fact that he arrived on the same day as Keryte. Kinery was 14 at arrival and Keryte was 16.
