How many wives did the Navajos have?
Polygamy was fairly common. Often they were sisters because traditional Navajo were matrilocal and matrilineal, which means a man goes and lives on his wife's family's land and that one belongs to your mother's clan. About 9% listed having multiple wives on the 1900 census but because it was illegal the number was probably higher. Most who had more than one wife had two or three. The Navajo Nation law currently outlaws polygamy.
What is neolocal types of residence?

Neolocality is often associated with modern, urban societies, where individuals prioritize personal autonomy and privacy in their domestic lives. It reflects broader social changes, including greater mobility and the emphasis on individualism.
Who controlled the family in the Navajo culture?
Traditionally, the Navajo are matrilineal and matrilocal. That means you belong to your mother's clan. You are said to be "born for" your father's clan. In older times your mother's brother was the one who would teach you and scold you. Matrilocal means a man moves to the wife's land and house when they are married. The property, except for personal property like clothes and horse belonged to the wife and her mother. If they separated he got nothing and would have to leave. That being said, "control" is an idea that was not valued in Navajo culture. It is very individualistic. Even mothers sometimes often don't tell a young child to stop doing something that might be dangerous. It is seen as an infringement on autonomy. In traditional Navajo creation stories the primal mistake that people make (unlike the garden of eden story) it that men and women argue over who it more important. The argument leads to separation and bad things come into the world as a result. The universe is seen a being made of dynamically balanced male and female forces. It one gets too strong or they fight it is seen as bad. Even one's own body has a male (left) and female side (right), colors and directions, rivers and mountains all have gender.
