Joe's great grandfather and grandfather Sam Ache Haught and family came to Tonto Basin with two large herds of cattle. They settled in Rye. Besides ranching, Samuel Ache Haught was a Territorial Legislator. He and his wife Dagmar divorced and later, Sam met and married Carrie Hunnicutt Martin, the sister of his cousin Babe's wife. They moved with her young children to Walnut Creek outside of Pleasant Valley and established another ranch. Joe defines the ranch management, the cattle, the culture and lifestyle unique to the local area. He also tells stories about his mother's father, a hillbilly moonshiner, coming to Arizona, of his parents meeting and of his early childhood to high school graduation.Audio Length00:55:39Date Original2007-09-23Date Range1870s (1870-1879)1880s (1880-1889)1890s (1890-1899)1900s (1900-1909)1910s (1910-1919)1920s (1920-1929)1930s (1930-1939)1940s (1940-1949)1950s (1950-1959)1960s (1960-1969)1970s (1970-1979)1980s (1980-1989)1990s (1990-1999)2000s (2000-2009)TypeSound- NonmusicalOriginal FormatOral historiesLanguageEnglishContributing InstitutionArizona Heritage Research FoundationCollectionOral Histories of Gila County RanchersRights StatementThe opinions expressed in this interview are those of the interviewee only. they do not represent the views of the Arizona Heritage Research Foundation.
