During her fieldwork in Montaña de la Flor, Chapman worked most closely with Alfonso Martinez, a Tolupan who lived near the east entrance to the community. Through her conversations with him, Chapman was able to document Tolupan oral tradition and social organization, and elaborate community genealogies. She developed a close relationship with him through their work together, recognizing his intelligence, inquisitiveness, and cultural awareness. Chapman last met with him in 1964; Alfonso, his wife Todivia Soto, and daughter Maria died of measles in 1969.
This series consists of two copies of Chapman's ethnographic and personal diary from the period of October 1955 through January 1960, when she was conducting her fieldwork among the Tolupan. Copy 1 is missing pages 469 --631; Copy 2 is complete. In addition, the series includes field notes from a return trip in 1964, documenting conversations with Alfonso Martinez related to Tolupan mythology and cosmology.
Chapman created a four-part index to the diary, included here in duplicate. Part I is a summary index, addressing mythology, social organization, settlement, and history; Part II focuses on economic themes; Part III addresses her observations on Ladinos; and Part IV indexes her field notes related to Alfonso Martinez.
