Biographical History
Located at Ganado, Arizona, on the Navajo Reservation; started by John Lorenzo Hubbell in 1876. It was later operated by family members; the last was his daughter-in-law Dorothy Smith Hubbell. She ran it as a museum until the National Park Service took responsibility for it as a National Historic Site, in 1967. Thirty-five other stores were established throughout the Southwest by John Lorenzo Hubbell and his family, and some of their records are included here. In addition to supplying the local Native Americans with needed goods, the Hubbell enterprise is significant for its promotion and national marketing of Navajo rugs and silverwork, as well as Hopi pottery and baskets.
