This subseries consists of materials relating to individual people. The majority of the individuals are pioneer aviators, and the materials consist largely of journal articles and newspaper clippings, including obituaries, dating from 1916 to 2000, with the bulk dating from 1950 to 1980. The files relating to Amelia Earhart and Charles A. Lindbergh are particularly extensive. Almost all the Earhart material is the gift of Earhart historian Shirley Dobson Gilroy. Pictorial materials for other individuals include a 1929 Associated Press photograph of Pancho Barnes and her pet dog prior to the Women's Air Derby, and a 1937 photograph of Midge Sherwood. Biographical materials include the reminiscences of Frank Samuel Lahm, 1846-1931, and a 1953 typescript copy of a 1948 account by Charles E. Taylor, "My Story of the Wright Brothers"; this typescript was at one time in the looseleaf binder of transcripts of accounts of early aviation history in the Walter R. Brookins Aviation Collection, cataloged as Aviation Folio TL508.B791. Other materials include a notarized 1957 verification of a 1914 Beloit Daily News account of aerial performances by Lincoln Beachey and Barney Oldfield; letters dated 1957 from Jesse Cyril Brabazon to Dr. Carruthers, and the first ten pages of a typescript of Brabazon's "1911-1916. Aviation in its Infancy or The Early Days of Pioneer Aviation"; a small Syd Chaplin Aircraft Corp. handbill for the Curtiss "Oriole", with a pencil annotation that it was dropped from an airplane on "9/8/[19]19"; a 1925 article by, and a 1936 memorial biography of, autogiro pioneer Juan de la Cierva; a 1953 speech by George Noville at the Valley Hunt Club, celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Institute of Aeronautical History; an illustrated brochure for an exhibition on the life and work of Igor Sikorsky; brochures, 1983 and 1987, of the International Forest of Friendship, Atchison, Kansas, with which pioneer aviator Fay Gillis Wells was associated in her later years; and a 1916 brochure for the Wright Flying School.
