Pioneer Living History MuseumAn Arizona Treasure in the Phoenix Arizona North ValleyIn 1956, plans for a living history museum began with a group of Arizona history enthu-siasts. Many landmarks of Arizona history were being destroyed by what many called progress. These enthusiasts formed the “Pioneer Arizona Foundation, Inc.” Original members include: Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lockett, who donated the state land lease to the museum. Paul Fannin, Governor of Arizona in the early 1960s. Barry Goldwater, United States Senator. Carl Hayden, United States Senator. Wesley Bolin, Secretary of State and Governor, George Babbit, Jr., Ann Schmitt Graham, a journalist, & Robert R. Weaver, a Phoenix attorney. The Pioneer Village Living History Mu-seum celebrated it’s Grand Opening on February 15, 1969, with Phase 1 of the Living History Village. Over time and with contributions from the public, this Village will complete the original founders’ dream “our West-ern heritage in Arizona is preserved for future generations”.

William Floyd “Billy” ClayborneThis is an original article written by Shari Jo

Can the actions of one short period of time define how one man is perceived throughout history? The answer is “yes” for a man named Billy Claiborne. A mere thirty seconds during the infamous shootout near the Ok Corral have branded Billy with such labels as coward, liar, rustler, and outlaw. Do these terms acurately describe him? Just exactly who was Arizona’s “Billy the Kid?”

William Floyd Claiborne was born on October 21, 1880 in either Mississippi (1) or Alabama (2). While he was still young, his family most likely packed up and moved to Texas. He’s known to have had at least one sibling named Norman Francis. Growing up in the post-Civil War atmosphere prevalent at the time, the antagonism caused by the influx of northern carpetbaggers in an area of southern ranchers couldn’t help but have an influence on young Billy.Billy left home as a teenager to work as a wrangler for his uncle on a cattle drive. It was at this time that he was introduced to John Slaughter, whose family might have known the Claibornes back in his home state of Louisiana. Slaughter decided to hire Billy for his upcoming drive from the Texas Panhandle to the San Pedro Valley in the Arizona Territory. When the drive pulled out, Billy, who was just eighteen, once again left home, but this time never to return. Other hands who road out with Slaughter were Billy Grimes, John Swain (Sweeny), Jeff Lewis, Tad Roland, and Tom Cochran, who later became involved in the Lincoln County War (3). (A little aside never mentioned in the article: The Claiborne family of Louisiana counts among its members a former governor named William Charles Cole Claiborne. When Louisiana became a state he was appointed as Governor of the Orleans territory and served from 1804-1812. In 1812 he was elected Governor of Louisiana and served until 1816, when he was elected to the US Senate. He died in office in 1817, after only serving a few months in the Senate.)

Billy, when he’d been hired on as a cowhand and remuda rider, soon gained a reputation as a tenacious, steady, and dependable worker. Each cowboy had a saddle string (mounts) made up of seven to ten head, with each cowboy using three fresh mounts a day including the night riders. Depending on how many cowboys were on the cattle drive, there could be up to three hundred horses in the remuda, which was the responsibility of the horse wrangler. His job included letting the horses graze, keeping them watered, and helping the cowboys with a new mount. Every morning the remuda had to be fresh and available for whenever they were needed. In order to accomplish this, the remuda riders might have to forgo sleep and meals, spending some very long days in the saddle.(4)

Slaughter himself was impressed with Billy’s attitude and work ethic. John Slaughter went on to be Sheriff of Cochise County, was one of those who dealt with the Apache trouble in the territory, helped found the first bank of Douglas, and even served in the state legislature.(5) In later years he and his wife Viola would remember Billy fondly.

PIONEER VILLAGE, ARIZONA. The Ter-ritorial Marshall has put Pioneer Village on high alert, after a towns-person spot-ted what she described as a well dressed, beguiling vixen type/busybody woman hanging around town yesterday. The Marshall has reason to believe that the woman is the notorious Alibi who goes by one of the alias’s, Miss Pringle. She charms the men and cons the ladies out of their innermost secrets; especially the ones with money. Once she has the confi-dence of most of the town, she rides back to camp. Under the cover of Alibi she, and her ruthless gang of desperadoes ride di-rectly back into town, to loot town folk of their riches. Once the gang has safely rid-den out of town Miss Pringle returns to console the poor victims. Of course she has an Alibi... Rumor has it, she will be at the 3rd Annual Wild Western Festival, September 28th, 29th and 30th at Pioneer Village, Phoenix, AZ. Her wanted poster is attached to help in her identification. The photographer who took this picture has since disappeared. Foul play is expected. Please report to the Sheriff or the Wild West Gazette if you spot her. The Sher-iff, and the Pinkerton Office are urging all who read this article, to attend the Wild Western Festival, and perhaps aid in the apprehension the notorious yet beguiling Miss Alibi. if you spot her.

January 2008 Tombstone - Southern Arizona Special Issue Vol. 2 Issue 1

Tombstone: The Town Too Tough to Die!Exciting destinations steeped in Arizona History Edward Lawrence Shieffelin was born in 1847, died in 1892. In 1877, he intended to go to California and find gold. He did not make it to California. Instead, he became an Indian scout working out of Camp Huachuca. He prospected in his spare

time near the San Pedro Valley, Arizona. The specific site of his exploration was a waterless plateau called Goose Flats. The soldiers he scouted for would josh him about his rock hunting; telling him “The only rock you will find out there will be your own tombstone.”

Prospecting Goose Flats, Shieffelin discovered a sizable vein of silver. Remembering the jostling he took, he called the mine Tombstone. In 1879, the town of Tombstone was founded. It boomed into a business city and became county seat in 1882.

In 1881, at the height of Tombstone’s prosperity, his brother Al created Shieffelin Hall. The boom in Tombstone lasted until late 1880’s. Around late 1889, Ed Shieffelin started traveling widely, including Alaska and Oregon. He always said he wanted to be buried in Tombstone. He was found in his Oregon miner’s cabin slumped over a valuable sample of ore, origin unknown. His Journal said “Struck it rich again, by God.”

Ed Shieffelin is buried in Tombstone. His grave is marked by a 25 foot high monument representing the type of marker a miner makes striking a claim. It is located on Allen Street about three miles west of downtown Tombstone.

Mining was the foremost product of Tombstone in the 1880’s. Tombstone experienced a major destructive fire in June 1881, a direct result of the “Boomtown construction”, and the dry atmosphere of the Arizona desert.

Much like Las Vegas today, Tombstone operated 24 hours a day seven days a week. The saloons and brothels were open for the convenience of the miners. A miner in Tombstone’s early years made approximately $4 a day. In comparison, a cowboy made about $30 a month. A miner was considered to be a skilled worker.

The Good Enough Mine was discovered by Ed Shieffelin in 1878. Today, the Good Enough Mine tour provides a wealth of real history concerning Tombstone. Andree & Shirley DeJournett, along with their guides, provide an accurate representation of life under Tombstone in the 1880’s. Their mine tour takes you down into the dark world of the miner. You get an insight to the tools, procedures, and pitfalls of mining in the 19th century in American southwest.

Early in 1898, the nearest railroad was nearly 140 miles to the north and west of Tombstone at Casa Grande. Without railroad access, the increasingly sophisticated, Tombstone was relatively isolated in the largely unpopulated Sonoran Desert wilderness. The railroad would reach Benson 25 miles north of Tombstone in1882, as depicted in the following short excerpt:

“A six-horse Concord coach carried us, not too speedily, over the twenty-five miles of dusty road to Tombstone. The coach was called the Grand Central, after a prosperous mine. A rival line was the Sandy Bob, from its proprietor, who preferred to be thus known, instead of by a conventional family name, such as might be found in a directory. We should certainly have taken the Sandy Bob, for its greater suggestiveness, in the line of the Bret Harte romances, except that it was just coming down when we wanted to go up, and coming up when we were going down. However, our own proved to have a good deal of suggestiveness too. A guard got up with a Winchester rifle, and posted himself by the Wells Fargo Express box.”

Tombstone, Charleston (only the foundations remain), and the surrounding countryside became known as one of the deadliest regions in the West.In the 1880s, illegal traffic flourished along the U.S./Mexico border with American “cow-boys” (Uncivilized gangs from the surrounding countryside) bringing stolen Mexican cattle north while Mexican smugglers came north for alcohol and tobacco, were at odds with the capitalists and immigrant miners who ran the city and mines. On October 26, 1881, this heated situation exploded in the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral.

In May of 1882, a second fire was particularly destructive and signaled what many thought was the end of the classic “Town too tough to die”, Tombstone. After the mid-1880s, when the high yield silver mines had been reduced to mining low grade oar in conjunction with the failure of the massive water pumps that were used to deflood the shafts, Tombstone’s existence was again in jeopardy.

The town rebuilt, to a lesser degree, and remained the Cochise County seat until 1929. Ranching became the primary income for the area when the mines played out. In 1946, the movie “My Darling Clementine”, started the resurgence of Tombstone.

For over 60 years Hollywood has depicted Tombstone as it was in 1881. This dramatization of life in the 1880’s has created a thriving tourist industry for Tombstone and southeast Arizona.

May 2008 Payson - North Central Arizona Edition Vol. 2 Issue 3

Zane Grey wrote “My beloved Arizona” referring to his long term intimate relationship with the state, its history and people which inspired his writing. Grey wrote 57 novels, over 200 short stories, 10 non-fiction westerns, hunting and fishing articles and books and provided inspiration for 130 movies all of which were enormously successful.

Grey was a baseball player, a New York City dentist and a starving writer before his tales of the western frontier made him “the father of the western novel.”

Published in over 20 languages, and estimated annual sales today between 500,000 and one million copies world wide. The Riders Of The Purple Sage is considered the quintessential western classic of all time.

The original Zane Grey Cabin was built in its remote location in the early 1920’s. Prior to being destroyed by the Dude Fire in 1990, it was a favorite historical destination for over 20,000 visitors a year. Even today, fans of Zane Grey, come to Payson asking for directions to The Cabin.

Zane Grey and his stories are an important part of our nations Western Heritage and a part of Payson’s history as well. The historical landmark site has been preserved for future generations with a replicated cabin historically accurate educational exhibit, giving local residents and worldwide visitors the opportunity to learn more about Zane Grey and his place in history. The Rim

Country Museum p r e s e r v e d many rare Zane Grey artifacts, and they have become a part of the Zane Grey Cabin Exhibit. The newly

reconstructed cabin opened in October 2005 and is located on the knoll near the Rim Country Museum at Green Valley Park in Payson Arizona.

Gateway to the Rim….by Ed Gagnon The scenic drive north on State Route 87 to Payson called “The Beeline Highway”,is a paradigm of beauty between the Sonoran desert and the mountains. The gradual 85 mile climb into the mountains from Phoenix (altitude 1,117 feet) to Payson (altitude 4,921) is picturesque. Leaving Mesa traveling through the Fort McDowell reservation into the lower rim, a transition of life occurs. The river scrub and Palo Verde quickly give way to the stately desert sentinel, Arizona’s Saguaro Cacti and the beauty of the Barrel Cacti. Near Payson the Cacti relinquish their sentinel duties to the pine of the high desert and finally to the mature trees of the Rim Country. The landscape transcends the apparent level terrain of the desert valley driving through the Fort McDowell Indian Reservation past the Mazatal (Aztec word meaning “place where deer gather,”) Mountains to the east. Four Peaks and Mazatal Peak are the prominent features as you travel north toward Payson. Originally Union Park was founded in 1882 with a population of 40 in the rolling hills of Green Valley just south of the Mogollon Rim . In 1884, the town’s name was changed to Payson in honor of Congressman Louis Edward Payson of Chicago. He received this honor for being instrumental in obtaining a Post Office in the new settlement. This new Post Office was a predominate factor in the growth of the cattle and logging industries in this region. The abundance of lumber and fertile grazing land is a substantial contribution to Payson surviving for 126 years. Payson is the front door to the high country. It is the closest escape from the Sonoran summer for residents of the eastern Metro Valley. Temperatures are considerably cooler in summer and winters are mild, creating a wonderful climate for outdoor lovers. Many people of the valley do not readily think of Payson as a destination. Cultural events, Rodeos, Museums, Payson Dew, a concoction brewed by local moonshiners and said to be the best homemade whiskey west of the Mississippi, and the home of the western author Zane Grey are just a few of the many reasons to reverse this trend and spend time in Payson. Arizona has been populated for centuries. Read “Apache-Spanish Conflict” by Gene Hearst in this issue Page 4. Learn about the origin of the Apache name, and how they affected the future of Payson and ultimately Arizona. Visit the Museum of the Rim Country and view exhibits of ancient cultures from over 600 years past. These exhibits reveal the pottery and basketry, along with a representation of the lives of the early inhabitants of the rim and Payson area. Discovered in 1877 by a prospector fleeing a band of Apaches, the Tonto Natural Bridge is a State Park is dedicated to the enjoyment of locals and visitors. It is named after the Apaches that roamed the region. The prospector and his descendents owned the property until 1948. The bridge has two spring fed waterfalls. There are three routes to the bottom where the hiker is rewarded with the massive opening at the base of the bridge. After lunch, or a leisurely cowboy breakfast, in one of the friendly locally owned restaurants, a visitor should spend some time at the Ranger Station Museum and the Zane Grey Cabin. Fire is a constant threat in the forest, and the Zane Grey Cabin was an expensive historical causality. The Ranger Station tells the visitor the process of preventing a Forest fire. The reconstruction of the Zane Grey cabin personifies the huge loss from fire in the back country. In old town you find the museums, art galleries and quaint shops that make the afternoon stroll exciting for the shopper and nostalgic to the western historian / enthusiast. From early morning breakfast at the diner to late night at the dance, Payson caters to the tourist, retiree, antique shopper, history buff, and best of all anyone just enjoying life in the Arizona high country. Welcome to the Gateway to the Rim….Resources: 1. The Mogollon Rim is named after Juan Ignacio Flores Mogollon. He was a governor of New

Mexico (territory) 1712 to 1715.

2. Zane Grey lived in a cabin near Payson. He wrote several books during his stay. One book “Under the Tonto Rim” was entirely about the people of the Rim country.

3. Established in 1991 as a Arizona State Park there is an admission charge. The park visitors and gift shop is the original family home. The road is paved.

4. Zane Grey the original cabin burned. Many artifacts were salvaged and are in the replica cabin .

FREE 5 Step Property ValuationWe take a 5 step approach to estimate the value of a property. Since there are many variables that are unknown, using a range of values is our pre-ferred method.

COST APPROACHUnder the Cost Approach, the objective is to ana-lyze the replacement value of the subject prop-erty less depreciation (Physical, functional, and economic obsolescence). The most common market to analyze this approach is the proposed and under construction market.

INCOME APPROACHThe Income Approach is probably the most ac-curate representation of property value based on true/factual performance. Some of the most com-mon measurements used to surmise property values are capitalization rates, yields (annual re-turns), and cash-on-cash returns.

SALES APPROACHUnder the Sales Approach the property is com-pared to similar and like-kind properties which have closed escrow. The expectation through this approach is to analyze previous principle moti-vations and market conditions that lead to past property values.

HIGHEST AND BEST USEDetermining the current use of the property in relationship to its future (HIGHEST AND BEST USE) is the motivation behind this approach. This approach analyzes the broadest form of inves-tigation as it studies community and economic changes that can affect the use of the subject property. Under this study a property whose cur-rent value is based on one intended use can be rendered functionally obsolescent in a changing market.
