History / Biographical

She attended the Calgary Stampede and Banff Indian Days regularly, and was married to Judas Hunter, her maiden name is unknown. Collection of 16 photograph prints donated by Eliza in 1970 to the Archives of the Canadian Rockies, annotations on the backs on some written by Catharine Robb Whyte, which likely means Catharine sat down with Eliza in order to ask her to identify the relatives and Stoney community members who appear in the photographs.
