MDHCA Archives: History of the American West
The MDHCA hosts a multi-million item archive specializing in the history of the American West. Collections include reproductions of government documents, early regional newspaper microfilm/microfiche, original photographs and negatives, and thousands of subject folders with emphasis on mining, ranching, homesteading, the military, archaeology, the 4×4 community, and local oral histories.
The archive is in the process of being organized and digitized when volunteers are available. If you have a research request or interest in volunteering with the MDHCA’s archive, please email lhmisajet@themojaveroad.org.
