These are photo copies I received from Mr. Richard Pohrt, Jr.; his father was a well known collector and he took many photographs of the Aanninen~WhiteClay people around the Ft. Belknap Indian Reservation in the 1930s. Fred White #1 was the son of Nika Wussah~Chief Bear and Wha-She-Cho-We-Ah~White Woman. The sur-name WHITE was taken from Wha-She-Cho-We-Ahs name so the Indian Agent could get credit for taking away the traditional NDN names we had and replacing them with what sounded more like Anglicized names in order to make us become English in form or character.
