Mission
The mission of the United Houma Nation’s Archives and Research Center is to ensure the adequate preservation of historical records, improve the access to tribal historic and genealogical data, and maintain and foster our tribe’s culture.
Purpose
The establishment of the Archives and Research Center will ensure the preservation and growth of documentation of UHN history, genealogy, publications and research, and as well as gathering artifacts to be housed under a unified effort. Citizens are encouraged to bring documents, photographs, and items that they might be interested in sharing with the tribe for preservation of future generations.
The United Houma Nation encourages all tribal citizens to document their ancestry for the future generations to come. The documents are stored through a secure program ensuring that they remain safe and secluded.
Tara Fitch currently serves as the Archivist. She is seeking out documented evidence of the United Houma Nation up until the 1900’s. Please allow 2-3 weeks until the archivist may be able to view your submission. Please read all the information on the submission form before completing.
