Re: The old Tony Cabin - Ranch

S.A.L.T. took over the old Toney Ranch in 2008. The ranch is 78.04 acres and runs along (straddles) Haunted Canyon Creek. There are four corner marker monuments one at each corner but last time I was there the monuments were down but you could find the pile of rocks. A tree nearby each corner monume...

Re: The falsehoods of Ryan, Tumlinson's and the SOJ

I think anyone who ever had the opportunity to meet and talk with Father Charles Polzer SJ was very fortunate in that the man was probably the most notable and literate historian of the Jesuit order in Arizona and the Southwest. Fr. Polzer never turned away anyone who inquired about the history of J...

Re: The falsehoods of Ryan, Tumlinson's and the SOJ

cactusjumper, somehiker, nobody, Anyone who thinks contacting the Jesuit order and getting someone to discuss the subject of Jesuit treasure is easy, they have an eye opening experience ahead of them. My only objective in contacting the Jesuits was in relation to the Clarence Mitchell article I was ...

Re: The falsehoods of Ryan, Tumlinson's and the SOJ

deducer, Here is the post I wrote just before RMG decided to attack me and the Superstition Mountain Historical Museum and their annual Journal. I do not know what caused RMG to go off like that or go after me. The article I wrote for the upcoming 2017 Journal is not my story it is Clarence Mitchell...

Re: The falsehoods of Ryan, Tumlinson's and the SOJ

Wait, didn't Ryan say that the maps that they are following cover as far as southern Pinal county? Is this another James Reavis land grant, were if you find any treasure or even just gold the Jesuits come running and claim it's theirs? So when the maps are shown on the show, they can claim that you...

Re: The Peralta-Fish Map

Frank L. Fish FrankFish.jpg Thanks so much to Scott Anderson for this compelling story. On a low hill in the back of the Jackson cemetery is a forgotten grave. It’s bleak and unornamented — a long, cement slab erupting from the weeds and dirt; an obscure ending point; a lonely pauper’s resting place...

Re: The Peralta-Fish Map

Choto, I'm not sure where you are getting the information that George Willing died of exposure but that is not the case. His death in Prescott was well known, well recorded and well attended. Willing died in the Juniper Hotel in Prescott on Cortez street March 19, 1875. He was fine and in no undue d...
