2018 Map of Geronimo

About this map

The Gila River winds through the heart of the Gila Valley, defining the geographic and economic character of this Graham County landscape. In this 2018 survey, the small settlements of Geronimo and Emery serve as primary points of interest for local historians, situated along a transportation corridor that follows the river's northern bank. The topography transitions from the alluvial floor to the complex drainage systems of the north, including McKinney Canyon and Dutch Pasture Canyon. Genealogists can identify specific family-named sites such as Hinton Cem and Emery Cem, which anchor the historical record of these communities. To the south, the expansive drainage of Goodwin Wash cuts through the terrain, while the prominent landmark of Black Point provides a clear navigational reference in the western portion of the quadrangle.
