Fillibusters Camp : ウィキペディア英語版 | Fillibusters Camp
Fillibuster Camp was a Butterfield Overland Mail stage station, its former site is located just north of Old Highway 80 on the east side of S Ave 34 East, east of Wellton, Arizona on Wellton Mesa, Yuma County, Arizona. Fillibuster Camp acquired the name because it was the site from which Henry A. Crabb led an 1856 expedition into Sonora, Mexico, to help put Ignacio Pesqueira into power. At the time Crabb was suspected of trying to conquer Sonora like the filibuster William Walker had done only a few years prior. Crabb's venture resulted in the death of all but one or two of the expedition and the beheading of Crabb. The site then served as a station for the Butterfield Overland Mail in 1858 and 1859.〔(GNIS Detail: Fillibuster Camp )〕 It was 18 miles southeast of Swiveler's Station, 19 miles west of Peterman's Station.〔( List of Stations from New York Times, October 14 1858, Itinerary of the Route )〕 ==References==
