    ARIZONA HISTORICAL SOCIETY 949 East Second Street Library & Archives Tucson, AZ 85719 (520) 617-1157 [email protected] MS 1202 Presidio Inspection Reports, 1791-1804 DESCRIPTION Photocopies of annual Presidio Inspection Reports for selected Sonoran (and one Chihuahuan) presidios, dated 1791, 1792, and 1800 to 1804, including Altar, Tucson, Santa Cruz, Tubac, Buenavista, Bavispe, Bacoachi, Frontera, and Monclova. The reports list officers, number of soldiers, and contain enlistment and service records. Some reports also include complete rosters and summaries of individual's financial accounts at the post. Also present are photocopies of service records for the officers of the Tucson Presidio between 1787 and 1799. The reports were copied from the Archivo General de Simancas, Secretaría de Guerra, Valladolid, Spain. 1 box, .25 linear ft. HISTORICAL NOTE According to historian Henry Dobyns, the Spanish colonization of its northern borderlands in New Spain occurred chiefly for defensive reasons. The military frontier advanced to protect the missionaries as they tried to convert Native Americans to Christianity. Posts were founded at Tubac and Altar in the aftermath of the Northern Pima Revolt in 1752. Later, protection of an overland route to Upper California was deemed necessary and the Tucson presidio was established in 1775. ACQUISITION The copies were donated by Homer Thiel in July 2001 and July 2002. ACCESS There are no restrictions on access to this collection.

Historically, the strength of our culture has been the community spirit, industriousness, and maintaining our traditions and languages. Today, we con- tinue to face the challenge of preserving these core values while also meeting the demands of a rapidly changing world. Throughout Gila River’s history, our tribe has made innumerable contribu- tions and will continue to play an inte- gral role in the decades ahead. Governor William R. Rhodes 5 COMMUNITYFACTSHEET COMMUNITY PROFILE The Gila River Indian Community is located on 372,000 acres in south-central Arizona, south of Phoenix, Tempe, and Chandler.

    Digitized- from Box 4 of the White House Press Releases at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library -/ . HISTORICAL NOTE ON :ME.ETING PLACES u.S. - MEXICAN PRESIDENTIAL MEETING October 21, 1974 In 1853 the Gadsden Treaty fixed the boundary between Sonora and Arizona at e 3l 20' North Latitude and, from the I 11th meridian in a straight but diagonal line to a point on the Colorado River twenty miles below its junction with the Gila. On that boundary lie the twin cities of Nogales, Sonora, and Nogales ·Arizona -- cities which act for all the world as though there were no boundary and, as.b2! Ambos Nogales, carryon their civic work as a single entity. Truly, the Gadsden boundary is artificial and the people of Nogales are his­ torically right in disregarding it. For the international boundary neatly,. bisects what was once a completely homogenous ethnic area called Pimeria Alta, or the land of the upper Pima Indians, who lived along the north-flowing San Pedro and Santa Cruz Rivers from a point considerably South of Magdalena de Kino in Sonora almost as far North as the Gila and whose lands extended East and West from the San Pedro to the Gulf. On March 13, 1687, an Italian Jesuit, Eusebio F]."ancisco Kino, first reached Pimena Alta, and he stayed until his death in Magdalena, now Magdalena de Kino, almost precisely 24 years later. In that short space of time, Father Kino brought to Pimer1a Alta not only Christianity but European civilization and economic self-sufficiencyo He explored North to the Gila, West to the Colorado and the Gulf, proving, incidentally, that California is not an island; he intro­ duced cattle raising and agriculture 'throughout the area: and he built great churches on both sides of the border, at towns unheard of in New E~landp New Spain, or Europe -- Caborca, Tubutama, C6sari, Buquivaba, Imuris, Coc6spera, to name a few South of the border, and at Guevavi, Tumacacori anI Bac in what is now Arizona.
