Administrative history
In the early 1980s, the Dene Community Council of Fort Good Hope established the Dene Language and Historical Research Project to gather oral histories and photographic images in the Fort Good Hope area. The aim was to create a body of research material for scholars, teachers and local residents and possibly for curriculum development. The project, co-coordinated by Cynthia Chambers, was aimed at the creation of oral histories by project workers, the accumulation of historical photographs from private collections and finally the documentation of the collected material through cataloguing. In 1988, the Council underwent a planning process to develop a plan for future community developments.
Custodial history
Scope and content
This fonds consists of two maps, 465 photographs, 43 DAT audiocassettes and 17 audio reels. The majority of the material consists of a collection of oral histories and photographs accumulated by the Fort Good Hope Community Council via their Dene Language and Historical Research Project. The oral histories were created because of the Dene Language and Historical Research Program. The photographs, collected from individual photographers, represent an artificial collection of historical photographs. Photographers include: Mr. Cassien Edgi, Brother Mahe and Alphonsine McNeely. The maps consist of town plans dealing with land use and development in the municipality of Fort Good Hope. One plan contains the text of the Fort Good Hope Community Plan. The second plan indicates zoning and focuses on the Jackfish Creek Redevelopment.
