This sentence makes no sense. HashMaps are for storage. They have nothing to do with IO.

OP when you say IO do you mean reading the contents of the file?And then subsequently I think what you are trying to do is map each of the three facts from the file into a HashMap with keys "name" "natiave" and "location"? Have you tried anything yet? As Junky mentioned show us what you have tried and then ask a specific question, and that is when people can help you.
Thanks!
