Some of the structures are individually listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).

[1][2][3][4] In 1872, President Ulysses S. Grant sent General Oliver Howard, as a special commissioner, to Arizona.

[5] Howard together with Tom Jeffords, a trusted friend of Cochise, met with the Chiricahua Chief.

Their meeting concluded in an agreement to cease hostilities with the understanding that Cochise would use his influence with the other Chiricahua Apaches to this end.

By the autumn of this year more than 1,000 of the tribe were settled on the newly established Chiricahua Reservation, southeast Arizona.

[1][2][3] In 1878, General Orlando Bolivar Willcox assumed command of the Department of Arizona during the last years of the Apache Wars.

It was also important to the cattle ranching and mining industries of southeastern Arizona as a major shipping point.

He wasn't in town during the OK Corral gunfight, but he did participate in Wyatt Earp's revenge where many cowboys were murdered.

After spending seven years in the Yuma prison, Downing went to Willcox and opened the Free and Easy Saloon.

[10] The mission of the Sulphur Springs Valley Historical Society is to collect, preserve and display historical artifacts and archives related to the cultural history of Willcox and its surrounding area in northern Cochise County, and the history of the Chiricahua Apache.

According to Jim McPherson, Arizona Preservation Foundation Board President: "It is crucial that residents, private interests, and government officials act now to save these elements of our cultural heritage before it is too late.

[15] The Stafford Cabin in the Faraway Ranch is one of the first homestead dwellings in the Chiricahua Mountains vicinity.

A second log room about the same size as the first was added sometime before 1885, followed by a small wooden-frame addition on the backside of the house around 1898.

The Stafford Cabin was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on March 31, 1975; reference #75000171.

The avenue became the Commercial center for the growth of Willcox and the Sulpher Springs Valley from the time of the construction of the Southern Pacific Railroad through the area in 1880.
