We arrived at Fray Cristobal in the evening, but this being the threshold of the famous Jornada del Muerto, we deemed it prudent to let our animals rest here until the following afternoon. The road over which we had hitherto been travelling, though it sometimes traverses upland ridges and undulating sections, runs generally near the border of the river, and for the most part in its immediate valley: but here it leaves the river and passes for nearly eighty miles over a table-plain to the eastward of a small ledge of mountains, whose western base is hugged by the circuitous channel of the Rio del Norte. The craggy cliffs which project from these mountains render the eastern bank of the river altogether impassable. As the direct route over the plain is entirely destitute of water, we took the precaution to fill all our kegs at Fray Cristobal, and late in the afternoon we finally set out. We generally find a great advantage in travelling through these arid tracts of land in the freshness of the evening, as the mules suffer less from thirst, and move on in better spirits particularly in the season of warm weather.

  • Burial Registers for Military Posts, Camps, and Stations 1768-1921
    Publication Number: M-2014 Publication Title: Burial Registers for Military Posts, Camps, and Stations, 1768-1921 Date Published: 1996 BURIAL REGISTERS FOR MILITARY POSTS, CAMPS, AND STATIONS 1768-1921 Introduction On the single roll of this microfilm publication, M2014, is reproduced a two-volume register of burials at military posts, camps, and stations from 1768 to 1921; however, the bulk of the burials occurred between 1860 and 1890. These registers are part of the Records of the Office of the Quartermaster General, Record Group (RG) 92. This publication was financed by The Malcolm H. Stern-NARA Gift Fund and the National Archives Trust Fund. Background The registers included on this microfilm were created by the Cemetery Branch, established shortly after the Civil War in the Office of the Quartermaster General, Washington, DC. Entries in the two volumes were based on each post's burial records or grave markers. The first volume was created in 1873, updated periodically until 1883, and updated sporadically until 1932. The second was created in 1883 and updated periodically until 1932. Some burials (generally those that occurred before 1883 in cemeteries that were still active in 1883) are listed in both volumes. In the book, Quartermaster Support of the Army: A History of the Corps, 1775-1939 (Washington: Government Printing Office, 1962, reprinted 1989), Erna Risch provided the following history of the quartermaster's role in burying deceased military personnel at military posts: Ever since 1775, the [War] Department had assumed certain duties in caring for the dead. In line with its responsibility for construction, repair, and maintenance at Army posts, quartermasters had long administered post burial grounds.

  • Chapter 4: the Military Seeks Control
    Chapter 4: The Military Seeks Control During the 1850s, the Southern Plains illustrated a pattern of contact and conflict that had become common throughout the western United States. Indian peoples who dominated areas before the establishment of American rule and the significant influx of Anglo-Americans found their preeminence in jeopardy. On the Central Plains, a combination of environmental change and inadvertent overuse of resources by Indian and Anglo alike endangered the riverine environments that sustained Cheyennes and overland travelers alike. Pressure created by use of the river valleys for grazing threatened buffalo herds as early as the 1840s, more than two decades before white buffalo hunters in the employ of railroads and the military began to wipe out these enormous shaggy creatures farther north. On the Northern Plains, along the Bozeman Trail, travelers who disrupted Indian life and broke treaty promises inspired violence between the tribes and soldiers; near Fort Laramie, in 1851, the shooting of a stray cow by an Indian led to the deaths of a number of soldiers and Indians and a permanent rift in relations. The large areas that Native Americans needed to maintain their ways of life assured that conflicts would continue. In the Southwest, the Mescaleros and Comanches faced the same encroachment, the same limiting of range and options, and their experience reflected those of other peoples of their time on the plains and in the West.1 The American military, as did its explorers and surveyors, became the enforcers of the doctrine of Manifest Destiny. During the 1850s, the Army first asserted its jurisdiction in the remote portion of the Mexican cession known as the Guadalupe Mountains and the trans-Pecos region.

  • El Camino Real De Tierra Adentro's Rack Card
    El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro National Historic Trail New Mexico, Texas Travel the Royal Road The Royal Road at the Jornada del Muerto in New Mexico. Blazed atop a network of footpaths that tied Mexico’s ancient cultures with the equally ancient cultures of the interior West, Don Juan de Oñate took the first Spanish colonists in 1598 along what became “The Royal Road of the Interior Lands.” El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro began in Mexico City and continued to Ohkay Owinge Pueblo, north of present-day Santa Fe, New Mexico. As a royal road, it brought priests, solders, traders, settlers, and officials to Spain’s northern frontier—today’s New Mexico. El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro is the earliest Euro- American trade route in the United States. Tying Spain’s colonial capital at Mexico City to its northern frontier in distant New Mexico, the route spans three centuries, two countries, and 1,600 miles. You can follow in their footsteps...
