Thanks for posting the photo of the Crown Dancers led by David Fatty. I never knew what he looked like. I learned from the elders that our group came from him. The Fatty's passed the group to Eugene Chihuaha. After his death in 1965, the group was passed on to Milford Yuzos and later to James Kunestsis. The group is now being led by Eugene Chihuahua's great grandson. There are many groups of Crown Dancers in Mescelero, the one mentioned is the Chiricahua group.

Hi to everyone! I'm reading the book of Alicia Delgadillo about the bios of war prisoners, and about Asa Daklugie i read that he, Naiche and Eugene Chihuahua feel to made a terrible mistake to press chiricahua for go to Mescalero, and they wrote to the governement asking for a new removal of the Chiricahua. Why this feels? Do you Know something about this matter?

This is the first time I hear of Chiricahuas feeling that they made a terrible mistake by going to Mescalero. I have interviewed plenty of Chiricahua descendants and White Tail natives and I have never heard them express those feelings. I have heard from all of them, that conditions were harsh the first few years. The high altitude, cold weather, lack of shelter and food tested their endurance to their limits. Things got better as they started cultivating the ground, raising cattle and building two bedroom tin roof homes. It is very possible that the three leaders may have re-considered their decisions to relocate and or have chosen White Tail as their place for adobe. |
