==History==
Dragoon Wash originally appeared on an 1855 Railroad Survey map, with the name ''Quercus Canyon'', named for the oaks that appear along its course.〔Map, From the Pimas Villages to Fort Fillmore by Lieut.

From the mouth of Dragoon Wash the San Pedro River Crossing was 5 or 6 miles northward on the east bank of the San Pedro River. This route was used by the San Antonio-San Diego Mail Line, Butterfield Overland Mail, and subsequent stage lines.〔Distance between Dragoon Springs and San Pedro Crossing 24 miles.
