In working on family genealogy, seems as though she might have shared her profession with one of my family. I'm wondering if anyone knows the name of the establishment in Globe ? Kate rests in Prescott Pioneer Homes Cemetery as a Cummings. By the way, most everything I've read about women of the west....they had a handful of…See More

Arizona Volunteers - Company "E" 1865 - 1867 Tubac & Forward
Sure would like to see a story for those brave men in Company "E" of the Arizona Volunteers who,
according to record, fought and dismantled the Apaches, to some degree, with General George Crook.
Yes, there is a personal reason, it seems as though one of the Members of "E" company was family. I
know that True West did a story years back, but what about an update ? All thoughts and comments
are welcome ! Andres, for you…

Simple Question for any Spanish speaking folks.
Howdy:
Now that simple greeting implies many things, even today. That's part of my question to you
real 'Histiory Buffs'....I toy with History but have not read enough, yet, to be considered that good.
Here's the question: If his name was Francisco Vasquez de Coronado in 1540 and he explored Arizona, New Mexico, Kansas and Texas looking for those 'Seven Cities' why…

- Chuck, the link I've provided should open as a pdf file. I copied the article and posted it as an attachment. It opens for me ok. If you can't open it, let me have your email and I'll send the article to you.

Lee Anderson said… - Thanks Chuck. He's a one-of-a-kind. He stands 17 hands tall, weighs 1365 lbs., has a very mellow personality, and, of all tha, he's a quick learner. I'm pretty proud of Ol' Concho and feel fortunate to have him. My wife took the phoot last Sunday at the SASS End of Trail event in New Mexico. He did a bow at the end of each of the three performances we did every day for three days.
