Item Details
Description
Cert. #198, issued at Carrolton, Ill. To George L. Williams for 500 shares. Signed by David Dodgson as president and William L. Orr as secretary. Although Inc. in Illinois, the company was listed in the Legislative Blue Book of the Territory of New Mexico as operating at Chloride, New Mexico. The Black Range is also called Devil's Mountains or Sierra Diablo. It was located almost entirely in the Gila National Forest in Sierra and Grant Counties, N.M. Silver was discovered in the Black Range in the late 1870's, first in 1876 at Lake Valley (Keyes), and then by Harry Pye in 1879 at Chloride, New Mexico(Abarr, Albuquerque Journal, 1998). This led to a silver rush, and gold and silver mines flourished until the end of the 1800's (Twitchell, The Leading Facts of New Mexican History). Nice mining vignette. Fine. Unc. Chloride, NM
