Notes
Please note: language pertaining to Indigenous Peoples used throughout is outdated and may be offensive. A few letters written on lodge letterhead. Most letters are marked with a small x in pencil, indicating where Jon Whyte made notes for use in his project "Catharine Robb Whyte, Peter Whyte: Commemorative Portfolio," originally published in 1981. Some letters have numbers written in pencil in the upper margin of the first pages from an unknown project.
