Subject: Thank you

Ya'e'teeh,

I am TL'aashch'i'i, born for the Ma’iideeshgizhinii clan. Orginally from Red Mesa, Arizona and Canyon De Chelly, Arizona. Currently a student at Arizona State University, majoring in American Indian Studies. I want to say "thank you" for your web site. It helps me in many ways and I appreciate it. Thank you for what you do for the Navajo Nation and providing Diné the Diné Land. It means a lot to me. When I missed home and Canyon De Chelly, I have no choice but to look at your web site and it comforts me. I think of my great-great grandfather Chief Barboncito and know why I am here. Therefore, your resource is important to us all. Thank you and Walk in Beauty. Ahe'hee.

Subject: Fort Defiance history

In October 1896 my grandmother’s sister, Trientje (Katie) Hoogeboom Fryling, arrived at Fort Defiance, AZ, with her husband, Rev. Herman Fryling, both immigrants from the Netherlands as children, to begin missionary work among the Navajos. She died four months later on February 14, 1897, in Fort Defiance. (That work eventually led to the founding of Rehoboth Christian School near Gallup, and numerous mission churches in the Four Corners area.) Four of Katie’s siblings died in their teens and early twenties of tuberculosis, and I suspect her cause of death was also TB. I'm trying to find out from the Arizona Health Department.

Someone at the Adams County Clerk's office gave me a link to a website at www.lapachie.com/Fort_Defiance, run by Harrison Lapachie, Jr. That didn't work, but I think she might have been thinking of you.

I have photos of the house that Herman and Katie lived in there, and I wonder if it still stands in Fort Defiance. I'd like to send a photo to someone who might recognize it. Would you please help me?

You have a terrific website!

Subject: Hiking at 'Navajo Hopi Nation'

Dear Madam, dear Sir!

In this autumn we are planning a trip to the Page Area. We are interested in hiking at "Navajo Hopi Nation" as well and so we found your online map very useful!

We are also interested in seeing the beautiful white and red hoodoos (please see attached picture).

Is it allowed to visit the hoodoos by ourselves or do we need a hiking permit?

And could you please give us some hints how to get there ? The name of the canyon or the rectangle on your map would be very helpful for us.

Thanks in advance & Kind Regards

Klaus / Germany

Subject: Permission to Use A Photo or Two?

Hello Harrison or Nilda...

A question for you ... I am working on a volunteer basis to help a non-profit organization based in Flagstaff, AZ called the Nídeiltihí Navajo Elite Runners. Their mission is to support Navajo high school, college and elite distance runners.

I am trying to put together a presentation for them that they can use to solicit corporate donations for their organization. Part of the presentation will include some historical background on the Navajo people ... and of course will highlight the Code Talkers. First of all, your website is fantastic! I learned quite a bit .... there are two pictures that, with your permission, I would like to include in the presentation.

If you could please email me, I can show you which pictures, and explain more about how they would be used. I can also refer you to the contacts at Nídeiltihí Navajo Elite Runners who can verify that I am who I say I am, and am helping them!

Thank you very much.

Dear Harrison Lapahie Jr.,

Hello, my name is Joycelyn Johnson. I am currently attending Gateway Community College and enrolled into a GIS class. I have an idea of what I would like to do for a final project in my class. My idea for a final project is to present a Map of the Navajo Nation/Chapter Houses/Landfills. I would greatly appreciate some insight on your part. I can't really find any shape files, demograph, aerial, etc. I would appreciate some help. I hope to hear from you as soon as you possibly can. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Hello,

My name is LeVon Thomas and I am writing a research paper on the Navajo-Hopi Land Dispute. I noticed that you had some info on that and I wanted to know where u go your information. I want to see where you got it so that I could look over them and quote them.

Also I wanted to know if you had a picture of Tom Puggie on your website. I saw a picture of his wife on there but I didn't see one of him. I am a great grandson of Tom and my grandfather recently passed away and we wanted to see if we could find a picture of Tom.

Well thanks and have a great day.

Subject: My maternal clan name

Ya at eeh,

I am Navajo on my mother's side and white on my father's. Born in 1956 I have always had a census no. I am told that I belong to the Rock House clan. I have reviewed your Dine Clans article and do not see it listed as such. I am doing genealogy research and have contacted ST. MICHAELS PARRISH'S census office their spelling for my maternal grand mother is cenzikini. The closest that I see in your article is on page 9 Tsenijikini- Cliff Dwelling Clan. I hope you can clear this up for me. Also let me thank you for the very informative web site I have learned a great deal.

Thanks,
Arlie Leo Weber

Dear Sir/Ma'am

I am a 40yr old freshman at Blue Mountain College, Blue Mountain, MS. I was wondering if there was any way I could get an email interview with you (Harrison) or someone closely related to a "Code Talker". I have a U.S History paper due on Apr. 18. My paper is about the Navajo Indians and their role in WWII and one of my references needs to be an individual interview. I have made several requests to others with no results. Please if any way possible can you please get back to me no later than Tuesday, April 15. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Mr. Lapahie,

This was a very interesting site to visit. I notices that you did not list the clan to which I belong. I have always been taught by my mother and grandmother that our clan is Tobacco People /Red Running Into the Water Clan (Natoh Dine Tachinii) my Navajo writing skills are not very good.

Harrison, Harry,

I have been to your website and it was very interesting to see all your accomplishments. I don't know if you remembered me at BYU. I was there in the Fall of 1975 and hung out with Sam Billiman, and my other friend was Tilman Paddock. We all went to the move called Exorcist. I remember you being so scared by the movie that we all went up to your room at Desert Towers to get your stuff so you can sleep over at your friends house. Oh! My name is Darrell Paiz. I don't know if you remember me but any ways good job in all your accomplishments.

Darrell

Subject: Comets and Supernovae recorded by Pueblo and Dine

Hi,

I am near Farmington and I have a 78-page study of petrolgypphs and pottery art that shows -- in a visual symbols language -- celestial events recorded in the Southwest and seen clear back to 3000 BC, 372 BC, and more recently. Do you know anyone who could help me look at more sites in this area, perhaps even a student interested in astronomy or archeology? I could send them a CD and BW copy of this material and perhaps we could find more like it. The booklet is called 23 Wonders of the Celestial Southwest; Ancestral Puebloan, Chaco Mimbres. I have lived in 4-Corners 1 1/2 years and am learning more about Navajo sites and experience and I think there are comet recordings at Shabikashee at Chaco.

Sincerely,
Suzan Bradford
