Scope and Content Note The files generally fall into the categories of Arizona and New Mexico cities and towns, military posts, and other places; Tucson, Ariz.; Indians of Arizona, New Mexico and Mexico; Mexico; and individual people. Formats include postcards, stereographs, cartes-de-visite, cabinet cards, cyanotypes, viewbooks, and photoprints. Cities and towns is a heading as well as folders under the names of individual cities and towns. These are often 19th and early 20th century images of celebrations, businesses, buildings, mining activity, floods, and churches. Tucson (Ariz.) is well represented and includes categories such as Tucson (Ariz.)- Architecture, Domestic (including images of some well-known homes), Businesses, Buildings, Clubs, Hospitals, Neighborhoods, Schools and Urban Renewal. In addition to Tucson, Bisbee, Douglas, Globe, Phoenix, and Tombstone are also well-represented. Other places include military posts such as Fort Grant (Ariz.) which includes images of the Corbusier family between 1887 and 1905, picnics, a wedding party, the 14th Cavalry Band, and a few African American 10th Cavalry soldiers. New Mexico places are also present. National parks and monuments are also represented under their names. The Mexico series is particularly strong. It includes images of the Mexican Revolution including the Mexican Army, Revolutionary Army, U.S. Army and U.S. Navy; and cities and people of Mexico including Cananea, Ciudad Juarez, Guaymas, Guadalajara, and Nogales. These are filed directly as in Mazatlan (Sinaloa, Mexico)--Carnivals, 1900-1920 or Mexico--History--Revolution, 1910-1920 (Bands (Music) Rurales). Under the broader category of Indians of North America and Mexico are found folders for individual tribes including Apache, Hopi, Maricopa, Navajo, Tohono O'odham, Yuma, and Yaqui as well as New Mexico and Mexico native peoples. In addition to subjects such as Dwellings, Basket making, Children, Women, and Men, sometimes individual people are listed for example as Apache Indians--Portraits--Bonito. Highlights in this series are Apache Indians-San Carlos Indian Reservation (Ariz.) , Hopi Indians-Rites and ceremonies, and Indians--Tohono O'odham-Indian Achievement Days (showing Home extension fairs, 1930-1934). Many other folders are under subjects such as Mines and Mineral Resources, Railroads, Ranches, Cowboys, Aeronautics, Automobiles, and so on. The Miami Copper Company is well represented with images of buildings, machinery, railroads, people, and more. Schools--Arizona includes photographs of Home Demonstration activities and children's activities at Indian and rural schools in Greaterville, Vail, Jaynes Station, Sonoita, etc. The People category lists people alphabetically under the main heading of People. Many of these images are studio portraits from a Douglas, Arizona photographer, taken between 1917 and 1918, and identified with the person's name. Well-known state and local individuals are also included. These include the Earps, Jeff Milton, Tom Mix, John Slaughter, Nelson Miles, Bruce Babbitt, the Wakefield family, the DeConcini family, and many others. Some individual files contain more than portraits. Edward R. Monk's file has cattle ranching images from his Willcox, Ariz. ranch. B. F. Ord's file has family photographs and Fort Grant officers and wives. Ada P. McCormick's file includes women's activities during World War II, and Margaret Sanger's file includes images of birth control hearings. Another format, which is listed both within the master list and separately at the end, is the Small Collections-Portfolio Boxes. These are arranged in the same format as the photograph files but they are filed separately in the Vault. They include photograph albums and small collections by person, place or subject. Several are scenic views of Arizona places including the Grand Canyon, some are Indians--North America--Hopi Indians villages and ceremonies. Mexico is well represented and the Mexican-American Border Region--History--20th Century has albums from Camp Harry Jones near Douglas, Ariz. and the New York National Guard stationed along the Rio Grande River. Photographs under Navajo Indians-Schools (Navajo Methodist Misson School) Portfolio Box (Vault) depict the life of students at the school in New Mexico circa 1954-1955. The Panorama format contains panoramic photographs of mining towns such as Ajo, Bisbee, Ray, and Jerome, and military camps in Douglas and Nogales, Ariz. and El Paso, Texas as well as some town views. Early Arizona photographers are represented throughout the collection and in some cases are listed in the guide. These include the Buehman Studio, F. A. Hartwell, D. P. Flanders, William Henry Jackson, George Wheeler, W. H. Williscraft, George Rothrock, E. A. Bonine, W. E. Hadsell, and Willis Haynes.

  • “Willie Or Billy” Claiborne, A.K.A
    OLD WEST STORUES William Floyd “Willie or Billy” Claiborne, a.k.a. “The Kid” Or was his name Calyborne? Clayborn? Or was it Claborn? Or did Billy even know. There are copies of his signature in at least two of these versions. All his trial documents list him as Clayborne. Viola Slaughter, wife of the noted Arizona lawman John Horton Slaughter, knew him well and spelled it as Claibourne. Well, we do know for sure that he was born in Mississippi. Or was it Louisiana? But more than likely it was in Alabama. The 1870 census shows records that would fit all three states. The record for Mississippi spells the name as Claborn, but the census takers were not the best for spelling. But this one seems to best fit the bill for Billy (Photo at right) and it shows that he was born in Alabama. He stated in court that he was born on October 21, 1860, and was from Mississippi. So we accept the date and the fact that he probably meant that he was raised in Mississippi. He migrated to the Devil’s River area of west Texas where some accounts say he killed two men. He became a cowboy and went to work for John Horton Slaughter. He was part of a crew that drove a Slaughter herd of cattle from Texas to Arizona and stayed. On October 1, 1881, in Charleston, Arizona Territory (now a ghost town), he shot and killed a blacksmith named James Hickey at Harry Queen’s Saloon. Exactly why he did it is not known.

Among these was an in-depth, two volume history of the American Federation of Labor. He received his doctorate in economics in 1935 and subsequently worked for the Wisconsin Industrial Commission, the Resettlement Administration and the Social Security Administration. In 1937, he joined the economics department faculty at Brown University and served as department chairman from 1949-1953.

The strikes that led to the deportation were complicated by the rivalry between the IWW and the AFL’s Mine Mill and Smelter Workers (MMSW). The power struggle between them left the working­class community in the district bitterly divided. A third labor union, the Liga Protectura [sic], Latina representing about 500 Mexican miners, complicated the mix with their own demands."

Exiled in the Desert: The Bisbee Deportees' Reception in' New Mexico, 1917 RICHARD MELZER On July 12, 1917, Sheriff Harry C. Wheeler and 1,197 armed deputies rounded up 1,186 workers in Bisbee, Arizona, and forced them out of town on board an eastbound freight train to New Mexico. Wheeler and his cohorts justified their action by declaring that the deported men were members of a feared labor union known as the Industrial Workers of the World, or IWW. The IWW reportedly had organized local copper miners in a dangerous strike against Bisbee's major employers, in­ cluding the powerful Phelps Dodge Corporation. Actually only about a third of the deportees were members of the IWW, and the miners' sixteen-day strike had all but fizzled out by July 12. But this made no difference to those who had ordered or led the mass deportation. 1 Richard Melzer is ,assistant professor of history in the University of New Mexico­ Valencia campus.

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.

  • Chapter Eleven an Angel in Tombstone 1880 – 1881
    Baker/Toughnut Angel/11 1 Chapter Eleven An Angel in Tombstone 1880 – 1881 Tombstone, Arizona Territory, 1800s (Courtesy Tombstone Courthouse) Nellie stepped off the stage onto Allen Street’s dusty board sidewalk. She turned to catch her carpetbag when the stage driver lifted it down, but stumbled over the hem of her skirt into the path of a dark-haired man with a full mustache. The stranger grabbed Baker/Toughnut Angel/11 2 her waist. “Whoa. Welcome to Tombstone! Got your balance there, Ma’am?” Nellie pulled her traveling skirt out from under her button-down shoe and noticed the man wore a silver star on his blue shirt. He took her grip from the driver and set it on the sidewalk. “My name’s Virgil Earp.” Next to him two other men attempted not to laugh. Virgil smiled, and indicated the other two with his hand. “May I present my brother, Wyatt, and Doc Holliday?” Earp, not a common name. These must be the Earps who had served as lawmen in Dodge City. She’d read newspaper articles and one of T.J.’s dime novels about Wyatt Earp. Doc Holliday stopped stamping his black boots to remove the dust, bowed at the waist and swept his bowler hat from his head. He smelled of leather and, what was that? Sage? “Indeed, welcome to Tombstone, lovely lady.” He drawled in a bass voice from under another wide black mustache. That made Nellie think of how Papa had always joked that men with mustaches were trying to hide something -- their upper lips.
