Series consists of various personal records, including government records verifying birth date and family information, a family tree, income tax returns (1936, 1942), and records relating to awards such as the Indian Achievement Award and honorary life membership of the Ottawa Branch of the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (1966).
Series consists of administrative records of the Indian-Eskimo Association, including Board of Directors and Executive Minutes, annual reports, correspondence, and other records.
Boxes 1-5 contain records relating to Sydney Helmer Standen (SHS) (known as Sid), as well as papers relating to other members of his family and of the families of Euphemia (Effie) Young Standen (nee McQueen) (EYS), his wife. Sid Standen was born 27 July 1905 in Minesing, Ontario, and died in Burnaby, British Columbia, 12 March 1975. In addition to documents of vital statistics, there are files regarding his schooling, teaching career, military service, sporting life, church life, and household and financial affairs. Professor Standen indicates that the papers were arranged to reflect their provenance as nearly as possible as they were found on the death of SHS in 1975. Most of the correspondence in these files contains letters received by SHS and EYS. They represent only a small fraction of the correspondence that the two received in their lives together. It is evident from even this limited record that they both engaged in a voluminous correspondence with distant family and friends. The letters span two world wars, drought and depression, and the Cold War era.
Series consists of photographs and negatives documenting members of the Standen and McQueen families and their activities. These photographs and negatives are located in albums, binders, envelopes, and rolls (in the case of panoramic photographs).
