This collection contains oral histories of Japanese American Nisei who were born or settled in Arizona prior to 1946. It provides their recollections of settlement, community-building and community institutions, farming, businesses, and work experiences in Arizona. Many discuss their Issei parents' reasons for secondary or terciary migration to Arizona. Most of the interviews are from Maricopa County.
