Among the many ways we support the community is by hosting Breakfasts with History.  In this lecture series, knowledgeable speakers provide insight into the varied and interesting history of life in the Santa Cruz River Valley. 

In the spring, the society celebrates with an Annual Picnic at a historic site. Also, periodically we sponsor field trips to archaeological and historical sites.

GADSDEN PURCHASE AND BORDER SURVEYS

March 25, 2020 @ 8:30 am - 10:00 am

$25 – $35

GADSDEN PURCHASE AND BORDER SURVEYS PRESENTED BY DANIEL JUDKINS

The Tubac Historical Society Breakfast with History
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 25, 8:30 AM – 10 AM at the LONGHORN GRILLE   AMADO

Surveys of the new border after the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, from 1849-1853, led to disputes and almost resulted in military action. The problem was solved with the Gadsden Purchase. This led to more border surveys. All of the surveys involved work in and around Tubac and Nogales. This presentation will highlight the many maps, landscape views, Indian tribes, and illustrations of plants and animals made by the surveyors and scientists working on the project.

This event has been postponed.
