MIMBRES APACHES & PINOS ALTOS GOLD The presence of gold miners in the Pinos Altos Mountains north of the Santa Rita copper mines was deeply resented by the Mimebres under Mangas Coloradas, who resisted the invasion between 1851 and 1863. Often the miners' supplies were captured. For a chronology of the several engagements in the Pinos Altos, see pp. 195-240 of John U. Terrell's Apache Chronicle (NY: World Pub, 1972; E999.A6.T4). In 1852-1853, companies of the Regular Army's 1st and 2d Dragoons protected the Santa Rita miners with a garrison at Fort Webster and by 1863 For West was established farther north for the Pinos Altos miners. The troops most deeply involved at the latter fort were California Volunteers under General James Carleton's command. In July 1862, Mangas journeyed southwest to the Chiricahuas, where he asked Conchise to join him in a new assault on Pinos Altos miners. It was here, in eastern Arizona at Apache Pass, that the Mimembres stated a $40,000 gold robbery and battle California troops. See pp. 230-231 of Terrella and 174-175 of Ceremony, cited below.

    From: Leo Cruz To: Hahn, Kara L. - CPD City Planner Principal Subject: [EXTERNAL] 900 E. 1st Avenue Date: Friday, July 17, 2020 5:10:28 PM Good afternoon Kara, Is the Carmen Court Designation review still open for public input? If so, I would like to state my support for the landmark consideration as stated in the application. In particular, I strongly concur with the assessments of criteria 6, 7 and 3 as detailed in the application. Please let me know if there is a process or format I need to follow to formalize my expression of support. Thank you! Leo Cruz 48 S. Pearl Street 720-219-3091 Karen Roehl, 90 Emerson Street, Carmen Court, Denver CO I was born in Montreal, Canada where I spent my childhood. In 1967 when I was 12, my family immigrated to Denver. I married and had 2 children by the time I was 24. The marriage didn’t work out, and I became a single parent. Working full time as a secretary while taking evening classes in graphic design made me a very busy mother! Eventually, I was able to shift careers and become a graphic designer. I had a great career for over 25 years. After my daughters went off to college, I began to pursue fine art painting. At age 50, I decided to go back to school to earn my BFA, my first higher ed de- gree. Graduating in 2007, I immediately found representation for my work and have made a living as an artist ever since. I sell my work through gallery representation and various shows.

VALUES IN TRANSITION: THE CHIRICAHUA APACHE FROM 1886-1914 John W Ragsdale, Jr.* Abstract Law confirms but seldom determines the course of a society. Values and beliefs, instead, are the true polestars, incrementally implemented by the laws, customs, and policies. The Chiricahua Apache, a tribal society of hunters, gatherers, and raiders in the mountains and deserts of the Southwest, were squeezed between the growing populations and economies of the United States and Mexico. Raiding brought response, reprisal, and ultimately confinement at the loathsome San Carlos Reservation. Though most Chiricahua submitted to the beginnings of assimilation, a number of the hardiest and least malleable did not. Periodic breakouts, wild raids through New Mexico and Arizona, and a labyrinthian, nearly impenetrable sanctuary in the Sierra Madre led the United States to an extraordinary and unprincipled overreaction.

  • 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.

In the Land of the Mountain Gods: Ethnotrauma and Exile Among the Apaches of the American Southwest M. Grace Hunt Watkinson Arizona State University Tempe, AZ, USA Abstract: In the mid to late nineteenth century, two Indigenous groups of New Mexico territory, the Mescalero and the Chiricahua Apaches, faced violence, imprisonment, and exile. During a century of settler influx, territorial changeovers, vigilante violence, and Indian removal, these two cousin tribes withstood an experience beyond individual pain best described as ethnotrauma. Rooted in racial persecution and mass violence, this ethnotrauma possessed layers of traumatic reaction that not only revolved around their ethnicity, but around their relationship with their home lands as well.

  • Lieutenant Faison's Account of the Geronimo Campaign
    Lieutenant Faison’s Account of the Geronimo Campaign By Edward K. Faison Introduction The Sky Islands region of southeastern Arizona and northeastern Sonora consists of 40 wooded mountain ranges scattered in a sea of desert scrub and arid grassland. To the west is the Sonoran Desert. To the east is the Chihuahuan Desert. To the north are the Arizona–New Mexico Mountains, and to the south is the Sierra Madre Occidental Range where elevations rise almost 10,000 feet from canyon floor to forested ridge. This “roughest portion of the continent,” in the words of General George Crook, was the setting of the Apache Wars—an American Indian–US Army conflict (1861–1886) unparalleled in its ferocity, physical demands, and unorthodox tactics. For a young lieutenant raised on North Carolina’s coastal plain and schooled in traditional warfare, Arizona in the 1880s was no ordinary place to embark on a military career.1 From this formative experience came this memoir by Lieutenant Samson L. Faison, which chronicles his eleven months of service in the Southwest during the Geronimo Campaign of 1885–1886. He wrote it in 1898 while serving at West Point as senior instructor of infantry tactics. It was never published.2 Faison’s account begins two days after the May 17, 1885 breakout of Geronimo, Natchez, Nana, and 140 Chiricahua Apache followers from the San Carlos Reservation in Arizona. Along the way, we revisit important milestones such as the death of Captain Emmet Crawford at the hands of Mexican militia, the surrender Faison's 1883 West Point Graduaon Photo conference between Geronimo and General Crook at Cañon de (USMA photo) los Embudos, and Geronimo’s subsequent flight back to Mexico followed by Crook’s resignation.
