Cochise county ranks ninth in area
among the counties of the state. 1t
contains $500 square miles of territory.
Cochise county was hewn from Pima
county and given a government of its
own There lived in the mountains of
southeastern Arizona famous Apache
chieftain known as Cachise or Cochise
and the new county was given his
name. His stronghold on the westerly
mountain wall of the Sulphur Springs
valley remains one of the show places
Of the county today. The seat of the
government for the new county was
placed at Tombstone, then the only
really important community within its
confines.

is now Cochise county is prominent

difficulties that had to be surmounted
by the early pioneers, it grew in i'm
portance and prospered until it be-
came easily the most important sec
