James Cameron, Resident of Hassayampa Valley
For 60 Years. Dies at Ranch
Funeral services for James Cameron, on of the oldest settlers on the Hassayampa river in point of continuous residence, took place at the Community Presbyterian church Sunday afternoon and were impressive and largely attended. Mr. Cameron, who first settled on the river at Walnut Grove in 1876, passed away at his home 12 miles above Wickenburg last Friday. He was 87 years old, having been born in February, 1849 in Illinois. He first emigrated to Texas, where he engaged in the cattle business, driving cattle over the Old Chisholm trail and engaging in many fights with the Comanche Indians, who were on the warpath at that time.
Upon removing to Arizona he continued in the cattle business, with some interests also in lumbering. His long residence on the river made him familiar with all the residents of the vicinity. The widow, two sons, a daughter, and eight grandchildren survive.
The funeral services were presided over by Rev. Reese Scull. J. R. Barnette, a close and long standing friend of Mr. Cameron, gave a scripture reading and obituary at the request of the family. The pall bearers were W. F. Morgan, Alfred Purdy, Bert Schoof, Albert Baldwin, John Boetta and George Cady. Burial took place at the Wickenburg cemetery.
