His interest as an amateur volcanologist and geologist is shown through various trips to Alaskan sites including Taku Glacier, Aniakchik, and Valley of 10,000 Smokes. His relationship to the people is depicted by his dog sled trip to Holy Cross to bring needed medicine to combat a flu epidemic, scenes of ice fishing and preparing for an umiaq trip with the King Islanders, and scenes of King Island village life. Film also includes his lecture tour undertaken to counteract the "myth" of a frozen Alaska and his Jubilee tour. Footage from ARCTIC SPRINGTIME, WINTER IN ESKIMO LAND, and ESKIMO TRAILS is used extensively.

These maps, which comprise the 2008.10 accession, were created between 1933 and 1980.
The primary geographic focus is the Kalahari Desert in South Africa, South West Africa
(present-day Namibia), and Bechuanaland (present-day Botswana). Other maps include
Angola, Uganda, Rwanda, Belgian Congo, and Rhodesia (present-day Zimbabwe).

Several maps were clearly used by the Marshall family in planning their expeditions to
southern Africa during the 1950's. A few include information provided by the Marshalls
based on their experiences in the area. Two hand-drawn or hand-modified maps
specifically detail the routes taken and areas explored by the Marshalls.

Several large kinship diagrams, probably created by Lorna and John Marshall, are included
at the end of this series. Kinship diagrams are restricted for privacy reasons.

Please note that some maps are very fragile and are not available for viewing. Maps are
rolled unless otherwise noted. Please refer to maps by accession number (listed at left).
