Queho
Queho (born around 1880;〔(Dezert Magazine: July 16, 2011, Volume 1, Issue 3 )〕 his name was also spelled Quehoe on his grave〔(Quehoe's remains )〕 or Quejo in other sources〔(FindAGrave.com: Queho )〕) was a Native American outlaw and renegade〔(Queho - Renegade Indian Outlaw of Nevada )〕〔(Queho in the Las Vegas Review-Journal, February 7, 1999 )〕 whose exploits became part of Nevada legend.〔(Dezert Magazine, July 2011, Volume 1, Issue 3 )〕 Many deaths were blamed on Queho and so he earned the title of being the (first mass murderer in the state of Nevada ).〔(Queho, Renegade Indian Outlaw )〕 and "The mad Indian"〔(Weird Las Vegas and Nevada: Your Alternative Travel Guide to Sin City and the Silver State by Joe Oesterle and Tim Cridland, chapter on "Death Trip: Queho's Quorpse" )〕
==Biography==
Queho was an outcast,〔(Queho: An Indian Outcast )〕 being called a "half-breed"〔(Speculation on Queho's lineage )〕 in the days when being half American Indian〔(Pahrump Valley Times: "Serial killer came to end of the trail in Pahrump" )〕 was not accepted. Queho's mother was from the Cocopah tribe.〔Wikipedia: Cocopah people〕 It is said Queho was half Mexican because his father was a local miner, although this is not known with certainty. His mother died shortly after birth.
Queho took odd jobs around Eldorado Canyon.〔(Panoramio: Eldorado Canyon )〕 He is said to have killed his half-brother and a 100-year-old blind Indian known to Queho as Canyon Charlie.〔(Canyon Charlie )〕 Queho had a club foot,〔(Queho, as described by the Queho Posse Website )〕 which left a distinctive impression〔Queho: An Indian Outcast〕 when he was being trailed. He is alleged to have eluded posses〔(In Search of Queho: The Renegade Indian )〕 and killed for food and supplies. Some say the fugitive Queho was not responsible for all of the murders that took place around the time period he lived.〔(Queho's cave )〕 Others say he was a cold-blooded killer〔(Queho the Renegade Indian )〕 who would do anything to stay alive and survive. Queho was blamed for the death of (Maude ("Daisy") J. Douglas )〔(In Search of Queho: The Renegade Indian - 8 News NOW )〕 after a search outside the cabin at the Techatticup Mine〔(Techatticup Mine )〕 in Nelson, Nevada. Settlers said Queho cursed the land. They called it "The Curse of Queho."〔(The curse of Queho mentioned in The Ghost Miner's Key )〕 In March 1919, the reward for capturing Queho "dead or alive" increased from an initial bounty of $1,000 to $3,000.〔(Dezert Magazine: July 2011, Volume 1, Issue 3, p. 10 )〕〔(Dezert Magazine: July 2011, Volume 1, Issue 3, p. 18 )〕〔(King Sasquatch Paranormal & Cryptozoology Blog )〕
In 1940, prospectors working near the Colorado River discovered a cave containing the mummified remains〔(Dezert Magazine: July 2011, Volume 1, Issue 3, p. 9 )〕 of the Nevada desperado. His remains were buried〔("Quehoe's" burial site )〕〔(Queho laid to rest )〕 only after being purchased by Queho's old nemesis, (Frank Wait ), a law officer,〔(Queho | the Forgotten Film Gallery )〕 before being given to the Las Vegas Elks Club,〔Wikipedia: Benevolent and Protective Order of Ellks〕 who exhibited the remains at Helldorado Days.〔Wikipedia: Helldorado Days〕 District attorney Roland Wiley secured the remains and gave Queho a proper burial〔(Paranormal & Ghost Society: Cathedral Canyon, Nevada )〕 at (Cathedral Canyon, Nevada ).〔(Wikimapia: Cathedral Canyon, Nevada )〕
