correspondence,
1860-1883 ead | | | Date(s): | 1860-1883 | | | Abstract: | This collection contains one series, correspondence. It is
comprised of 57 letters, 34 of which were written by George Cranston, primarily
to his sister, Gertrude. 14 of these letters relate Cranston's experiences as a
soldier in the Arizona Territory, from 1866 to 1870. Cranston was stationed at
Fort Yuma, Camp Lowell, Fort Grant, Camp Tubac and Camp Crittenden, and his
letters reveal the privations of a soldier's life, the uncertainties of living
on the frontier, and the fear of Indian attacks. Leaving the army and Arizona
in 1870, the letters continue with Cranston's travels in New Mexico, Kansas and
Texas. The remaining letters, the bulk of which are addressed to Gertrude, are
correspondence from other Cranston siblings, and letters from James Cranston,
their father. Many of these are accounts of family activities and events,
others reveal some of the emotional undercurrents in family life. | | | Repository: | University of Arizona Libraries, Special Collections | | | Subjects: | Apache Indians -- Wars | Frontier and pioneer life -- Arizona | | | Matches: 1 hit(s)
