Hi Stacey,

A few years ago I had the opportunity to document a station on what is now an abandoned portion of the original  (1878-1880) Souhtern Pacific's transcontinental route through southern Arizona.  This was Esmond Station (originally Papapago Station, a few miles southeast of Tucson).  I documented the adobe building housing the Hispanic railroad workers, as well as the frame housing for the Anglo-American supervisory personnel, to HABS standards (¼' to 1'), modified to 11" by 17".  I believe that I've got a digital version of the report text (in Word), but the drawings were done traditionally (by hand, ink on mylar).  If you wish, I can email you the text and send you copies of the drawings by post.  Please advise me accordingly, by email to my office address, [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>.

Sincerely,

  Subject: Early 20th Century Mexican-American Sites


  Greetings histarchers,

  I am performing archaeological work on a "section house" in Los Angeles,
  California, built by the Pacific Electric Railway Corporation to house
  Mexican-American families and employees in the early 1900s (my site was
  occupied from 1906 through 1936). I am writing to see if anyone knows of
  archaeological reports that look at Mexican households in the West during
  this time period.

  Thank you for your help in advance,

  Stacey Camp
