FS: Four 1930s ‘Marshalltown Indians’ at Boone Biblical College Iowa 
Photos.

Four photos, one identified with a typed tab- “Indians from 
Marshalltown, Iowa, at Boone children’s meeting. College conducts 
vacation Bible School for Marshalltown Indians”. The back is stamped 
“Boone Biblical College”.

Boone Biblical College in Boone, Iowa, was founded by the Rev. J.C. 
Crawford, a Congregational minister, in 1891, who renovated city houses 
to serve as the college buildings. At one time it included a laundry, 
bakery, cannery, print shop, old people’s home, boys’ & girls’ home, 
radio station, and a 160-acre farm.

The ‘Marshalltown Indians’ may have been from the Meskwaki Settlement, 
“an unincorporated community in Tama County, Iowa, United States, west 
of Tama. This was part of the historic territory of the Meskwaki, an 
Algonquian people. (They were known to English colonists and Americans 
as the Fox.) Since 1857, when Meskwaki bought land here, it has been 
home to a sizable community of Meskwaki Indians. They are enrolled in 
the federally recognized Sac and Fox Tribe of the Mississippi in Iowa, 
one of three Sac and Fox tribes in the United States” [Wikipedia].

Four photographs- 2 snapshots and two silver gelatin prints. 3.5”x2.75”, 
3.5”x5”, 4”x5”, 5”x7.5”. Scattered wear and soil. [45343]  $85
