Title: Guide to the Fredericka Martin Papers, 1926-2019

Fredericka (Freddie) Imogene Martin (1905-1992) was writer, photographer, historian, and chief nurse and administrator of the American medical volunteers who served during the Spanish Civil War. Following the war, Martin worked on the Pribilof Islands in the Bering Sea, becoming spokesperson and advocate for the indigenous Aleut sealing community. She produced a series of articles and books on Aleut culture and history and edited an Aleut language dictionary. In 1950, Martin moved to Cuernavaca, Mexico, a cultural outpost for Spanish exiles and American expatriates. During the 1960s, she initiated research for a projected book on the participation of the American medical units in the Spanish Civil War. Her papers reveal her dedication to amassing the most comprehensive record on the role of medical volunteers in Spain. In addition to the diaries, journals, clippings, leaflets and other ephemera donated to Martin, the collection includes extensive correspondence between Martin and hundreds of medical and combat veterans from around the world. Materials in this collection also document her writing career, anthropological interests, and life in Mexico.

Series I includes correspondence from and biographical material on hundreds of medical volunteers from over 25 countries (Includes materials written in Spanish, French, Russian, Rumanian and German).

Additionally, this series contains materials donated to Martin, including Spanish Civil War letters (originals and copies), diaries and journals (typescripts and photocopies,) personal essays, clippings, leaflets and other ephemera. Martin also collected the medical writings and other materials published by the medical volunteers.
