In 1929, leaders used a Hogan to meet. Later, because of
the population increase and more people wanting to attend
the meetings, The Catholic Church basement was used until
the Chapter house was built
This area was not made part of the Navajo reservation until
1934, although Navajos have lived in the area since the
17th century. Following the treaty of 1868, Navajo returned
to live in their customary areas after Fort Sumner.
