  • The Grand Canyon of the Mojave.” It Was Originally Called Cave Canyon, but Acquire the Current Name After the Railroad Stop of Afton Was Created at the West End
    Afton Canyon: Afton Canyon is often called “the Grand Canyon of the Mojave.” It was originally called Cave Canyon, but acquire the current name after the railroad stop of Afton was created at the west end. It’s one of the few places where the Mojave River flows above ground in places all year round. Vehicle access is permitted through most of the canyon, however no vehicles are allowed in the western end, where the “horseshoe” is and where the caves are located. This closed area is bypassed by taking the access road along the railroad tracks and driving through the Mojave River wash under the railroad tressel. At one time there was a train stop at Afton and a station. Afton Cemetery is located south of where the station once sat. There are five stone-covered mounds and wooden crosses. One of the burials has been identified as that of Jose Flores, born about 1882, died May 29, 1906. Flores was one of three men who arrived at Afton Station on an early-morning train hoping to be hired on. They were intoxicated and after attacking Section Foreman Robert Y. Williams, who was severely injured in the brawl, Flores was killed. The other two were wounded, one fatally. [John V.

  • MARCH 2012 by Richard D
    City of San Bernardino Historical and Pioneer Society P.O. Box 875, San Bernardino, CA 92402 LIBRARY NEWS MARCH 2012 By Richard D. Thompson, Librarian PIONEER “UNCLE GEORGE” LORD Last month I mentioned our intent to create a "big-book" on William F. Holcomb and his descendants. A big-book is a four- or five-inch-thick, heavy-duty ring binder filled with hundreds of pages of whatever can be found on the family. We have one on John Brown and one on Fred Perris. These are works in progress because there is much more material available than what we were able to collect within the restricted time and effort devoted to the project. A file on George Lord is now being gathered. He was the first president of the San Bernardino Society of California Pioneers, who, upon his death in 1898, was described in a Riverside newspaper as the "most famous man in southern California." Another article said "there was not a stain" in his life, and a third stated that "thousands" attended his funeral (the total population of the city was only about 6,000). I am still in the process of accumulating what is readily available on this man. This includes photographs, references in George Lord history books, newspaper articles and anything that can be found on the Internet. “Uncle George” Lord, as he was called, and his wife Arabella Singleton Lord had two sons and a daughter, the latter of whom died as a baby. The boys, George Lord, Jr., and John Singleton Lord, both had families, and I have included in the big-book what information I have on them, their wives and families.
