| | J. E. Jones Photographic Album Dickinson Research Center |
 | | Photographic album with 45 photographs by J. Jones, whose images document the Sioux Indians at the Cheyenne River Agency in South Dakota, the Assiniboine and Gros Ventre Indians at the Fort Belknap Agency in Montana, and the Western Apache Indians at the San Carlos Agency in Arizona. |
 | | These photographs, very reminiscent of the Sumner W. Matteson photographs of Fort Belknap now at the Field Museum in Chicago, show large groups of Assiniboine and Gros Ventre men and women in traditional clothing, American flags flying, and several views of the tent where the medicine dance was held. |
 | | images of the agency include a photograph of agency buildings in winter, a dam on the Milk River near the agency, a government operated sawmill with tipis nearby, and the Catholic St. Paul’s Mission with the church, school, and outbuildings visible in the photograph. |
