Biographical Note
This collection contains personal, and at times intimate, letters between Kathleen Koiner to John Hazeltine. These letters were written
by Kathleen Koiner to John Hazeltine when they were both in college. Kathleen signed many of the letters using her nickname “Kaki” and
addressed many of the letters to John using his pet name “Dill.” During this letter-writing period, Kathleen was attending University of
Southern California, while John was enrolled at University of California at Berkley. However, John was also working in some of the mines
around Prescott. The letters describe college life in the 1920s, regarding sororities, studies, activities, social life and customs, as well
as Kathleen’s intense love for John “Dill” Hazeltine.
Scope and Content
This collection contains family photographs, love letters, Sherman Hazeltine’s papers, and the Cornucopia Mining Company Ledgers. The number
of photographs is quite extensive, however many are unidentified. The love letters are personal and intimate letters from Kathleen Koiner to
John Hazeltine while they were courting during their college days. Records range from the early 1880’s to the 1950’s including some early records
that Moses Hazeltine kept while Arizona was a territory.
