The town is located at the foot of the Dragoon Mountains, about fifteen miles northeast of Tombstone, and was named after Courtland Young, one of the owners of the Great Western Mining Company. ==History== Between 1908 and 1909, four large mining companies, the Great Western, the Calumet & Arizona, the Copper Queen and the Leadville, began digging for copper ore in the Dragoon Mountains. As result, hundreds of settlers came and established a tent city almost overnight. Within a short time, the Mexico & Colorado Railroad, which was owned by the El Paso & Southwestern, and the Arizona & Colorado Railroad, owned by Southern Pacific, built lines to the town to accommodate new settlers.〔 A post office was established on March 13, 1909, and during the same year the ''Courtland Arizonian'' printed its first newspaper. At its height, Courtland had a population of 2,000 and by the time it became a ghost town there was a car dealership, an ice cream parlor, a movie theater, a baseball field and a horse racing track, as well as more necessary buildings, such as houses, hotels and the county branch jail. The Chamber of Commerce was formed in 1911 and the first item on the agenda was to supply the town with water. Within a matter of months, five miles of water mains were installed by the newly formed Courtland Water and Ice Company.〔 The boom did not last long though. Within ten years the profits from the mines began to shrink and in 1921 a "mass exodus" occurred. At first the Dragoons seemed to be rich in copper, however, beginning in 1917, one mine shaft after another tapped into a layer of limestone 300 feet down. This eventually led to the abandonment of the mines, although a post office remained open until September 30, 1942.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Courtland, Arizona」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
