Indian History

"Chief Grant Richards (Tonkawa)" Photo by F. A. Rinehart, 1898. The Tonkawa are a Native American people indigenous to present-day Oklahoma and Texas. They once spoke the now-extinct Tonkawa language believed to have been a language isolate not related to any other indigenous tongues. They are enrolled in the federally recognized tribe Tonkawa Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma.

Jenny and Tansy, young Ton-kawa women. Photo: ca. 1865-72. - Part of the Lawrence T. Jones III Texas Photography Collection. Series 2: Cartes de Visite. - Comment: Prints of Cartes de Visite seem to have been produced on a very porous card. Which in turn makes the original prints barely visible over time. Hence the quality above even after trying to save the images have not turned out sharp or clear as one could hope for.

Photo: 1872-75. The subject of this photograph is most likely a Tonkawa Indian scout serving with the U.S. Army at Fort Concho. The scout is equipped with a U.S. Army Springfield rifle, and he wears a regulation U.S. Army belt with rectangular belt-plate showing the Federal eagle. The short hair-pipe breastplate is typical of those worn by Southern Plains Indians. Source: Lawrence T. Jones III.

Ton-ka-wa women, Tin cup and Minnehaha with a young girl. Photo: ca. 1870. - The Tonkawas were given English names that were easier to remember and pronounce than their native names. Land Allotment records show that Minnehaha was called Cat-so-yeo in Tonkawa. Note the long knife she holds. It was not uncommon for Tonkawa women to accompany male warriors on raids and expeditions, and some were well known for their courage and fierceness during engagements. Source: Lawrence T.

Ton-ka-wa Chief, Campo, 123 years. Photo: ca. 1865-1872. Part of Lawrence T. Jones III Texas Photography Collection. Series 2: Cartes de Visite. - In the 15th century, the Tonkawa Tribe probably numbered around 5,000 with their numbers diminishing to around 1,600 by the late 17th century due to disease and warring with other tribes, most notably the Apache. By 1921, only 34 tribal members remained but their numbers have since recovered close to 600, most of whom live in Oklahoma.

The original photo was a faded photograph, and is the only known image of Castile, one of the chiefs of the Tonkawas during the 1860s and 1870s. Chief Castile did effective work as a scout and guide for the Texas Rangers and U.S. Army during their pursuit of hostile Comanches and Kiowas. Photo: 1865-71. Source: Lawrence T. Jones III.
