Re: The Chase Cabinet Photo

I have a correction to make to the previous post, we were up late last night, found a new web site!
We found maps, Township Maps of Original Land Patents of Yuma County, Colorado. The web site is http://www.rootsweb.com/~coyuma/yuma.htm if anyone is interested, Cliff has asked me to contact the Mr. Lee Zion who runs it, to post photos and stories there. Anyway great site, lots of info, pictures of Armel and pioneers, so here's my revision on the Chase Cabinet Photo.

Leslie W. son of John M. and Ester Winn Chase, came from Ohio to homestead in Colorado, his land can be found listed in Township 2 South Range 42 West, Yuma County, Colorado. Near the south east corner. Listed in 1891 there was a Cash sale of one plot of land, in 1895 he Homesteaded the adjoining north land.
