BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE: Clara Thompson Woody was born in Belleville, Kansas on December 2, 1885. She lived in various places in Kansas (Clay Center, Morganville, Goodland, and Topeka) and went to school in Colorado City, Colorado; Las Cruces and Albuquerque, New Mexico; and Monrovia, California. Clara moved to Globe, Arizona, in the spring of 1917 and married Clarence W. Woody later that year. After two years in Texas and Oklahoma, Clarence Woody was discharged from the Army and they returned to live in the Globe area because the climate was good for her health. Clarence worked at various mines in the Globe area, and retired in 1957. Clara worked in law offices and insurance companies, and began historical research in 1940, and collected a small library of western books. Clara wrote a series of articles for the Arizona Republic in 1956, and in 1977 wrote “Globe, Arizona” with Milton L. Schwartz. She was also active in the Gila County Archaeological and Historical Society, the Arizona Pioneers’ Historical Society (later the Arizona Historical Society), and corresponded with friends and relatives, various historical and professional organization, and others interested in historical research. Clara T. Woody died in Globe, Arizona on April 5, 1981. Leslie Ethelbert Gregory was born in Guatemala, Central America on November 28, 1878. At the age of four, he moved with his family to California, where he was educated. Gregory worked as an accountant, a journalist, and a banker in Mexico, before moving to Arizona. During the Franklin D. Roosevelt administration, Gregory served as the Gila County Field Representative for the Federal Writers Project and wrote numerous articles on the area for the Arizona State Guide and for other publications. He also wrote a number of articles for the Arizona Silver Belt on items of local interest. Leslie E. Gregory died in Globe, Arizona on November 29, 1946.

Like so many well-entrenched, traditional as- sumptions, this one is unwarranted. J. Evetts Haley, in editing one of the extremely rare accounts of the cattle drives to Califor- nia which preceded the Texas-to-Kansas experiment by a decade and a half, slapped the blame for this misunderstanding squarely on the writings of Emerson Hough.

WILLIAMSON) Albert Sieber was born in the Grand Dutchy of Baden, Ger- many, February 29, '1844, and died near Roosevelt, Arizona, February 19, 1907. Came to America with his parents as a small boy, settling for a time in Pennsylvania, then moved to Minnesota. Early in 1862 Sieber enlisted in Company B, First Minne- sota Volunteer Infantry, serving through the strenuous Penin- sula campaign of the Army of the Potomac as a corporal and a sharp-shooter. On July 2, 1863, on Gettysburg Battlefield, he was dangerously wounded in the head by a piece of shell, and while lying helpless and unattended on the field of battle a bul- let entered his right ankle and followed up the leg, coming out at the knee. He lay in the hospital until December, 1863, when he was transferred to the First Regiment of Veteran Reserves as a corporal, under Captain Morrison, and his regiment was ac- credited to the State of Massachusetts. When Sieber fell wound- ed on the field of Gettysburg, General Hancock, who was near him, was wounded at the same time. For Sieber 's service with this regiment the State of Massachusetts paid him the sum of $300 bounty.

  • Twisted Trails of the Wold West by Matthew Baugh © 2006
    Twisted Trails of the Wold West By Matthew Baugh © 2006 The Old West was an interesting place, and even more so in the Wold- Newton Universe. Until fairly recently only a few of the heroes and villains who inhabited the early western United States had been confirmed through crossover stories as existing in the WNU. Several comic book miniseries have done a lot to change this, and though there are some problems fitting each into the tapestry of the WNU, it has been worth the effort. Marvel Comics’ miniseries, Rawhide Kid: Slap Leather was a humorous storyline, parodying the Kid’s established image and lampooning westerns in general. It is best known for ‘outing’ the Kid as a homosexual. While that assertion remains an open issue with fans, it isn’t what causes the problems with incorporating the story into the WNU. What is of more concern are the blatant anachronisms and impossibilities the story offers. We can accept it, but only with the caveat that some of the details have been distorted for comic effect. When the Rawhide Kid is established as a character in the Wold-Newton Universe he provides links to a number of other western characters, both from the Marvel Universe and from classic western novels and movies. It draws in the Marvel Comics series’ Blaze of Glory, Apache Skies, and Sunset Riders as wall as DC Comics’ The Kents. As with most Marvel and DC characters there is the problem with bringing in the mammoth superhero continuities of the Marvel and DC universes, though this is not insurmountable.

  • United States Army Scouts: the Southwestern
    3-/71 UNITED STATES ARMY SCOUTS: THE SOUTHWESTERN EXPERIENCE, 1866-1890 THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS By Carol Conley Nance, B. A. Denton, Texas May, 1975 Nance, Carol Conley, United States Army Scouts: The Southwestern Experience, 1866-1890. Master of Arts (History), May, 1975, 156 pp., 4 maps, bibliography, 107 titles. In the post-Civil War Southwest, the United States Army utilized civilians and Indians as scouts. As the mainstay of the reconnaissance force, enlisted Indians excelled as trackers, guides, and fighters. General George Crook became the foremost advocate of this service. A little-known aspect of the era was the international controversy created by the activities of native trackers under the 1882 recipro- cal hot pursuit agreement between Mexico and the United States. Providing valuable information on Army scouts are numerous government records which include the Annual Report of the Secretary of War from 1866 to 1896 and Foreign Relations of the United States for 1883 and 1886. Memoirs, biographies, and articles in regional and national histori- cal journals supplement government documents. TABLE OF CONTENTS Page LIST OF MAPS . iv Chapter I.

  • {PDF EPUB} the Legend of the Apache Kid by Sarah Black What History Writes About the Apache Kid
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Legend of the Apache Kid by Sarah Black What history writes about the Apache Kid. The Kid’s fame has bred a confusing array of legends, but one of the clearest account comes from Dan Thrapp’s biography, Al Sieber, Chief of Scouts . Thrapp presents several versions of the Apache Kid story, offering insight into their accuracy. The Kid may have been born in Aravaipa Canyon in 1860 as a member of Chiquito’s band, or perhaps he was from Wheatfields, north of Globe, a White Mountain Apache born in 1868. All agree that he was tall and had piercing dark eyes. He often wore a black felt hat, and boots, when available. His family appeared in Globe around 1875 and the Kid began to pick up small jobs in saloons and stores. There he drew the attention of Al Sieber, a German immigrant who served in the Civil War, prospected in California and Nevada, and finally settled in Globe. Sieber made the Kid his protégé, even teaching him his own version of frontier-style cooking. One of the few portraits available of the Apache Kid. Courtesy of the Library of Congress. Photographer: Erwin Baer. General Crook created the Apache Scouts in the early 1870s, and hired Sieber as a civilian commander. Sieber shared his success with his young assistant. The Kid enlisted in the scouts as a teenager and rose to sergeant quickly. He took part in the battle of Big Dry Wash, the last pitched battle with the Apaches, with Lt. George H.

Hall A generally accurate appraisal of Western films might claim that In­ dians as hostiles are grouped into one undifferentiated mass. Popular hostile groups include the Sioux (without much differentiation between tribes or bands, the Apaches, and the Comanches). Today we will examine the images of Apache and Comanche groups as presen­ ted in several Western films. In some cases, these groups are shown with specific, historically identifiable leaders such as Cochise, Geron­ imo, or Quanah Parker.

Box 207 Pearce, Arizona 85625 2 THE LIFE AND TIMES OF WYATT EARP by John D. Gilchriese Field Historian, University of Arizona On March 19, 1848 a seemingly unimportant event took place in Monmouth, Warren County, Illinois. Although nearly totally unnoticed at the time, the birth of Wyatt Berry Stapp Earp would prove significant to countless individuals interested in the history of the post Civil War, trans-Mississippi West. His name has become commonplace to serious historians and an army of fictioneers alike. Yet, history shows that this man spent little actual time in Mon­ mouth. Just two years after his birth, the Earp family migrated to Pella, in southeastern Iowa. On the beautiful rolling prairies sur­ rounding this small agricultural town, Wyatt Earp grew to manhood. Due to the rigid insistence of his father, Nicholas Porter Earp, Wyatt, his brothers and sisters received a two-fold education. For the sons this included not only classroom studies, but a knowledge of several trades as well. Farm work, however, never appealed to Wyatt who as a small boy craved the more adventurous pursuits of hunting and exploring the local Iowa countryside.

  • WEB GYMOAZ the Iconic Western Town of Young 2.11.2021Dd
    The Iconic Western Town of Young, Arizona By: Sherry E. Engler Range wars, rowdy cowboys, gunfights, and ca4le rustling once claimed the town of Pleasant Valley, known today as Young, Arizona. Father Time has progressed slowly in this small establishment of history, giving any adventurer a glimpse into the late 1800s. Young is truly a place to step back into Arizona’s past and experience spirits of a Ime of conflict and irony. Originally named Pleasant Valley in the 1870s, the founding se4lers found the land to be good for habitaIon. Peaceful breezes gently blowing among the Ponderosa Pines perhaps inspired the name. Or perhaps viewing the gentle valley sloping calmly into the promising blue sky gave the founders a sense of peace and serenity, thus eliciIng the name of Pleasant Valley. In my imaginaIon as I Ime travel, I can hear the voices of yesteryear saying, “Hey, this is pleasant! Let us name it Pleasant Valley!” And so it was. However, the pleasantness of the valley turned out not to be so idyllic in the range war spanning the ten years between 1882 and 1892. The unpleasantness invaded nearby towns, such as Globe and Presco4, and wrote history as far as Apache and Navajo counIes, as this range war stretched beyond the confines of Pleasant Valley. The infamous family names in this range war were the Grahams and the Tewksburys. However, as in many conflicts, the insIgaIon of this murderous feud was abe4ed by others: James SInson, hired gunfighters, ranch hands, the Hashknife Ou[it, the Daggs Ou[it, and of course, law enforcement.
