My paternal grandmother’s family was of the Shoshone and Paiute.

This group includes the surroundings of Kanab where John Wesley Powell and his group wintered. These Albumen photographs depict mainly those living in about a two hundred mile radius of Kanab. It was the Utah territory in 1872 so it extended to the Moapa valley and down to the north rim and included all the tribes in the region as far north as the Wasatch group.

Powell had Hillers make this group of photographs as a lobbying effort to get more money for more exploration from congress. This photograph includes the Kanab Mormons, Powell on the left side with his right arm missing and the group which is mainly from the Kaibab group. Notice he dressed them up to make them look like real Indians. Normally they didn't wear much.
