There are letters from factors, purchasing and transportation agents, the Secretary of War, the Secretary of the Treasury, merchants, members of missionary societies, and others interested in Indian trade or Indians generally.

1795-1821 - M1334    13 rolls

The factory for the Creek Indians was one of the two original factories established in November 1795. It was not usually called the Creek factory. Sometimes it was referred to as the Georgia factory, but it was better known by the names of its successive locations: Colerain on the St. Mary's River, 1795-97; Fort Wilkinson, 17971806; Ocmulgee Old Fields, 1806-09; Fort Hawkins, 1809-16; and Fort Mitchell, 1816-20.

The records have been filmed in the same order as they have been described in the preliminary inventory of the Records of the Bureau of Indian Affairs as entries 42 through 53, with the exception of one series of records (entry 43), which has been previously microfilmed by the National Archives as M4, Letters Sent, Records of the Creek Trading House, 1795-1816, and has not been refilmed in this publication. See the BIA Inventory, entry 42, for more information about the Creek Factory.

Letters Sent, 1824-1881 - M21. 166 rolls   DP

This series consists of handwritten copies of the general outgoing correspondence of the Office of Indian Affairs. Included are instructions to superintendents, agents, and other employees and acknowledgments of and replies to incoming correspondence.  Reports to the Secretary of War (or to the Secretary of the Interior after 1849) and to certain other officials, including chairmen of congressional committees, were copied in a separate series of volumes called "Report Books" (see M348).

Until 1869 the letters were copied in chronological order.  Beginning in that year, two or more books were used simultanously. Letters relating to    certain broad subjects (such as land, finance, and civilization) were copied into separate books, but with in each book the arrangement continued to be chronological. Most of the volumes are indexed by name of addressee and, to some extent, by subject. There are also marginal notations of the page numbers for other letters to the same person.

Field Office Records

By the time the Office of Indian Affairs was established in 1824, the system of superintendencies and agencies was well organized, Superintendents had general responsibility for Indian affairs in a geographical area, usually a Territory, but sometimes a larger area. Their duties included the supervision of intertribal relationships in their jurisdiction and between the tribes and citizens of the United States or other persons, and the supervision of the conduct and accounts of agents responsible to them. Agents were immediately responsible for the affairs of one or more tribes. They attempted to preserve or restore peace and often tried to induce Indians to cede their lands and to move to areas less threatened by white encroachment. They also distributed money and goods and carried out other provisions of treaties with the Indians. Gradually, as the Indians were confined on reservations, the agents became more concerned with educating and "civilizing" them.

The records maintained by field offices relate to almost all aspects of Indian administration in the field. Records of a superintendency include those of the agencies over which it had jurisdiction. Sometimes records of reservation schools and other field units are included with the agency records. The kinds of records maintained did not vary much from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, although there are great differences in the quantities that have survived. Most of the correspondence of superintendents and independent agents was conducted with the central office of the bureau, but considerable correspondence was exchanged between superintendents and agents within the superintendency. Also found is correspondence with other field officials and employees, Army officers, businessmen, and Indians.

Reports of inspection of the field jurisdictions of the Office of Indian Affairs, 1873-1900


"The inspectors investigated fully all matters pertaining to the conditions of the Indians and the extent to which they adopted white civilization, reservation boundaries, the use of reservation lands, the state of industry (usually the percentage of farming and cattle grazing by government employees and Indians), the character and abilities of the agent and other employees, school conditions, the status of agency fiscal records, and enforcement or violation of the law. During the 1890's many inspection reports were submitted on printed forms showing the names and titles of employees at the agency; their residence, age, sex, and rate of compensation; the nature and extent of services performed; and comments on character, education, and personal habits, and qualifications or fitness for the position. Other topics covered in the written reports include the health of the Indians; the receipt of rations; the removal and treatment of Indians by agents and other officials; traders' dealings with Indians; Indian courts; building repairs; condition of dormitories, kitchens, and dining rooms; the water supply; fire protection; and sanitation and drainage... charges or claims made by individuals or changes in personnel at agencies."--Introd.

The reports are actually from the records of the Office of Indian Affairs, 1873-1880, and from the Indian Division of the Office of the Secretary of the Interior, 1880-1900.
