Jkt 241001
U.S.C. 3003(d)(3). The determinations in
this notice are the sole responsibility of
the museum, institution, or Federal
agency that has control of the Native
American cultural items. The National
Park Service is not responsible for the
determinations in this notice.
History and Description of the Cultural
Items
On an unknown date in 1902, two
cultural items were removed from the
White Earth Band of the Minnesota
Chippewa Tribe in Mahnomen,
Clearwater and Becker Counties, MN. In
1902, William Wynkoop Smith
collected the cultural items during his
visit to the White Earth Band of the
Minnesota Chippewa Tribe. The items
remained in the Smith home in Saint
Cloud, MN and later Cold Spring, MN.
In 1982, Smith donated the items to the
museum. The two sacred objects are
ceremonial clubs. When the items were
donated to the museum in 1982, the
Curator identified them as Anishinaabe.
Further research into beadwork and
design confirm the items are of
Anishinaabe origin.
At an unknown date between 1930
and 1982, three cultural items were
removed from the White Earth Band of
the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe in
Mahnomen, Clearwater and Becker
Counties, MN. The three sacred objects
are one drum, one rattle and one
headband. The drum was owned by
Charlotte Fineday Broker, a member of
the White Earth Band of the Minnesota
Chippewa Tribe who lived with the
White Earth Band of the Minnesota
Chippewa Tribe her entire life. Broker
died in 1951 and her daughter-in-law
Martha Aspinwall Broker, also a
member of the White Earth Band of the
Minnesota Chippewa Tribe, acquired
the item. Martha married Charlotte’s son
Robert in 1918, moved to Royalton, MN
by 1930 and St. Cloud, MN by 1943. It
is unclear when, between 1930 and
1982, the three sacred objects left the
White Earth Band of the Minnesota
Chippewa Tribe. In 1982, Martha Broker
donated all three items to the museum.
Determinations Made by the Stearns
History Museum
Officials of the Stearns History
Museum have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(C),
the 5 cultural items described above are
specific ceremonial objects needed by
traditional Native American religious
leaders for the practice of traditional
Native American religions by their
present-day adherents.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there
is a relationship of shared group
identity that can be reasonably traced
