Hope Cecelia Svinth Carpenter was the first historian to write in depth about the Nisqually people.〔Lynda V. Mapes, ''Seattle Times'' staff reporter: "Obituary: Hope Cecelia Svinth Carpenter, 85, tribal elder, historian", ''The Seattle Times'', http://seattletimes.com/html/obituaries/2012239309_carpenter30m.html, originally published Tuesday, June 29, 2010 at 10:02 PM.〕〔Cecelia Svinth Carpenter, Maria Victoria Pascualy, and Trisha Hunter: ''Nisqually Indian Tribe'', Images of America Series, Arcadia Publishing, Mount Pleasant, S.C., 2008; ISBN 0738556114, ISBN 978-0738556116.〕 As a Tacoma, Washington schoolteacher and enrolled member of the Nisqually tribe, when Carpenter discovered that her students' history books provided an inaccurate relation of the history of native people, she began researching and writing the tribe's history to set the record straight.〔〔 Relying upon only primary sources and original documents, which took her to distant archival repositories such as the U.S. National Archives in Washington, D.C., and London, England to locate original materials,〔 she authored some 23 books, including:〔WorldCat search, http://www.worldcat.org/search?qt=worldcat_org_all&q=Cecelia+Svinth+Carpenter, 30 Aug 2013.〕 * ''The Troubled Waters of Medicine Creek : An Investigation into the Nature of the Fishing Rights Arising from the Medicine Creek Indian Treaty of 1854'' (Thesis, Pacific Lutheran University, 1971) * ''They Walked Before : The Indians of Washington State'' (1977) * ''How to Research American Indian Blood Lines : A Manual on Indian Genealogical Research'' (1984) * ''Fort Nisqually : A Documented History of Indian and British Interaction'' (1986) * ''Leschi : Last Chief of the Nisquallies'' (1986) * ''Where the Waters Begin : The Traditional Nisqually Indian History of Mount Rainier'' (1994) * ''The Treaties, The Councils & The Reservation'' (Washington State Capital Museum, 1992) * ''The Seasonal Round of Life in Traditional Times'' (Washington State Capital Museum, 1992) * ''Tears of Internment : The Indian History of Fox Island and the Puget Sound Indian War'' (1996) * ''The Nisqually—My People : The Traditional and Transitional History of the Nisqually Indian People'' (2002) * ''Remembering Medicine Creek: The Story of the First Treaty Signed in Washington'', with Maria Pascually (2005) * ''Stolen Lands : The Story of the Dispossessed Nisquallies'' (2007) * ''Nisqually Indian Tribe'' (2008) Carpenter's expertise in writing and disseminating the history of the Nisqually people as a record of and supplement to their rich traditional oral history earned her the office of Nisqually tribal historian, chief consultant on Indian history for the permanent exhibit of the Washington State Historical Society, and curator of the society's ''Remembering Medicine Creek'' exhibit at the Washington State History Museum.〔 ==Personal== Daughter of Hans Svinth, a Danish-born Lutheran pastor, and Mary Svinth, a Nisqually woman, Carpenter was the twelfth of thirteen children raised on a family farm seven miles east of Roy, Washington.〔"Hope Cecelia Svinth Carpenter obituary," ''The Olympian'', http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/theolympian/obituary.aspx?pid=143850113.

Carpenter and began raising a family.〔 When her children were older, she returned to school and earned her high-school diploma through night school.
