History Timeline[edit | edit source]
1852, New Mexico TerritoryArizona is in yellow, left of the dotted line - Until 1821New Spain controlled the land that later would become Arizona. Some records of early settlers may have been sent to an archives in Seville, Spain, or to archives in Mexico City.
- In 1821 Mexico obtained jurisdiction over the land that later would become Cochise County, Arizona. Some records of this period may have been sent to archives in Mexico City.
- 4 July 1848 In the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo, Mexico ceded a small part of northeast Cochise County in present day Arizona.[9] Look for records in the National Archives and Records Administration, the Mexico Archives and the New Mexico State Records Center and Archives.
- 9 Jan 1852 New Mexico redefined the boundaries of previous counties and created new ones to cover all the land within its territory. The boundary of Dona Ana (NM) was expanded to include some land in present day Cochise County Arizona.[10] But most of the land that later became Cochise County still belonged to Mexico. Look for records in the Mexico Archives and Dona Ana County.
- 30 Dec 1853 The US bought the Gadsden Purchase from Mexico. It contained land south of the Gila River in present day Arizona, including most of the land in present day Cochise County.[11] Look for records in the National Archives and Records Administration, the Mexico Archives, and the New Mexico State Records Center and Archives.
- 4 Aug 1854 The land acquired in the Gadsden Purchase was officially added to New Mexico Territory, it became non-county land.[12] Look for records in the New Mexico State Records Center and Archives.
- 3 Feb 1855 Dona Ana (NM) gained all the land acquired in the Gadsden Purchase.[13] [14] [15] This county included all the land in present day Cochise County. Look for records in Dona Ana County.
- 24 Feb 1863 The US created the Arizona Territory from the western half of New Mexico Territory.[16] All previous counties were discontinued for this new territory. Look for records in the Arizona State Library and New Mexico State Records Center and Archives
- 10 Nov 1864 Arizona created Pima County.[17] This county is named for the Pima Indians. It included all the land in present day Cochise County. Look for records in Pima County.
- 1 February 1881 Cochise County was created from Pima County.[18][19] This county named for Cochise, the great Apache warrior who had died seven years before. Look for records in Cochise and Pima counties.
- 14 Mar 1968 Cochise County gained a very small amount of land from Santa Cruz County when the boundary was redefined to run along the east line of range 18 east.[20] Look for records in Cochise and Santa Cruz counties.
