Lot of 24 photos of the family of Nellie Williams, also known as "Indian Nellie" of Strawberry Valley, California. Nellie was the mother of Eliza, who also married a Williams. Photos depict family photos, life around home, in nature, a celebration, and are an intimate look into family of this famous woman. Some photos are newer prints from old negatives. Some photos are annotated on the back, including a photo of two women (one is Elsie Childs) and four children and is noted as "Amador Indians". Research into Amador County has shown that the Ione Band of Miwok Indians, comprised of Northern Sierra Miwok and Nisenan peoples, were settled in the area. Garvis Collection. California
