Gleeson Ghost Town | Abandoned Arizona Mining Camp | USA | HD
Gleeson is a populated place situated in southeastern Cochise County, Arizona. It has an estimated elevation of 4,924 feet (1,501 m) above sea level. The town was first settled as Turquoise[4] in the 1870s in what was then the Arizona Territory, then later re-established as Gleeson in 1900.
Though several families still live on the site, Gleeson is, by all measures, a ghost town, with the only commercial venture appearing to be a rattlesnake products store. Visitors can find the ruins of a hospital, a saloon, a cemetery, a jail, the foundation of the village school and evidence of the extensive mining in the surrounding hills near town.

GHOST TOWN TRAILS: Brunckow's Cabin - Deadliest Cabin in Arizona
Brunckow's Cabin is considered to be the bloodiest cabin in Arizona history. Between 1860 and 1890, at least twenty-one people were killed there, many of whom are buried on site.
Brunckow's Cabin isn't really a ghost town, however a lot of history is contained within it's walls. Located about 200 yards south of the Charleston highway and a half mile east of the San Pedro River. An article in the Arizona Democrat on May 20, 1891 wrote: Many will tell you that the unquiet spirits of the departed ones want to revisit the glimpses of the moon and wander about the scene which witnesses their untimely taking off. The graves lie thick around the place.
The builder of the house was Fredrick Brunckow, a German mining engineer, who was murdered in 1860 and his body found in a mine shaft in the area. One version is that a gentleman named William Williams, one of the three Anglos among the several Mexicans at the camp, went to Fort Buchanan for supplies in September of 1860. When he returned after dark he discovered the gruesome remains of two of the Anglos in the cabin and Brunckow was found dead later in the mine. Some say they were killed by their employees.
The Tombstone Prospector on May 20, 1897, said that in the early days the Brunckow mine was the scene of much excitement, shootings, and dissension among the owners. One man was supposed to have been shot and thrown into a well but as there were abundant men in those days an investigation seemed needless.
Brunckow, well-educated, emigrated to the U.S. in 1850. He joined the Sonora Exploring and Mining Co., and worked in explorations in the Tubac area. He developed his San Pedro Silver Mine a short distance from the river.
The fireplace of this cabin is where Ed Schieffelin melted and assayed the ore from the mines that were later to bring Tombstone into existence.
Fairbank Ghost Town, Cemetery, and the Grand Central Mill ~ Desert Hike
I am going to remake this video with information about the history of the area. It is pretty fascinating; a lot happened here! I don't have my microphone with me now but I still wanted to upload something for you.
Thank you for watching!
Fairbank is a ghost town in Cochise County, Arizona, next to the San Pedro River. First settled in 1881, Fairbank was the closest rail stop to nearby Tombstone, which made it an important location in the development of southeastern Arizona.
Originally the location of a Native American village known as Santa Cruz in the 18th century, the area was later settled around the time the railroad came through in 1881, and developed further when the local railroad station was built in 1882. It was originally known as Junction City, then Kendall, then Fairbanks, and was formally founded as Fairbank on May 16, 1883 on the same day that the local Post Office opened.
Due to its proximity to Tombstone, and the fact that it boasted the nearest railroad station to what was one of the largest cities in the western United States, Fairbank acted as a way point between Tombstone and the rest of the country, bringing supplies into the bustling town, and also acting as the departure point for the ore pulled from Tombstone's silver mines on its way to the mills in Contention City and Charleston. Fairbank was also home to a stage coach station on the Butterfield Overland Mail line which opened in 1885. At its height in the mid-1880s, the town housed approximately 100 residents, and boasted a steam quartz mill, a general store, a butcher shop, a restaurant, a saloon, a Wells Fargo office, the railroad depot, and a stage coach station.
When the Tombstone mines closed after flooding in 1886, Fairbank's prominence declined as the nearby mills shutdown, and the rail depot it offered became increasingly unnecessary. Subsequent droughts drove away area farmers and ranchers, further isolating the town. Fairbank was reprieved from a possible extinction when the railroad linked nearby Bisbee to Fairbank's train depot in 1889, making Fairbank an important leg in the transit of copper mined from the highly productive Copper Queen Mine. However, the flooding of the San Pedro River in September 1890 caused significant property damage, thinning down the population further.
On February 15, 1900, Fairbank was the scene of an attempted train robbery of the express car on the Benson-Nogales train by the Burt Alvord gang. Express Messenger and former lawman Jeff Milton, drove off the bandits despite a serious bullet wound sustained to his arm. The robbery was unsuccessful, and gang member Three Fingered Jack Dunlop was mortally wounded, later to die in Tombstone after confessing to the attempted robbery.
In 1901, the Mexican land grant on which the town was situated was purchased by the Boquillas Land and Cattle Company who extended the leases on only the commercial building and several residences into the 1970s.
Remnants
By the mid-1970s Fairbank was all but deserted. The final remaining residents left when the buildings were deemed unsafe. After that, the post office closed, and the side roads became overgrown and largely impassable. Some years later, in 1986, the former Mexican Land Grant was acquired by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the town was incorporated into the San Pedro Riparian NCA as the Fairbank Historic Townsite. What remains of the town of Fairbank is now open to the public. The remaining structures include:
A commercial building, an adobe structure that used to house the general store, the post office, and the saloon. The structure has been stabilized by the BLM.
The Montezuma Hotel which was built in 1889 to the south of the Commercial Building. The hotel was torn down to make way for highway construction, and only portions of its foundation remain.
A small wooden house, built in 1885, in a style common in the 1880s.
The schoolhouse, built of gypsum block manufactured in nearby Douglas, AZ, was constructed in 1920, and was a functioning school through the 1930s.
A larger wooden house, built in 1925.
A stable and an outhouse, which were built in the early 1940s as part of a Works Progress Administration project based in Fairbank.
A railroad bridge, northwest of the townsite along the San Pedro River, built in 1927.
A railroad platform, west of the townsite, along the former railroad line
In March 2007, the BLM restoration of the schoolhouse was completed, and the structure was opened to the public as a museum and information center for Fairbank.
Shortly after its founding, the 1884 population estimate for Fairbank was roughly 100 people. US Census figures, taken every ten years, show the town's population peaking in 1890 at 478 residents, then shrinking to 171 by 1900, and then increasing again to a high of 269 in 1920 before entering a steady decline which ended with the abandonment of the town in the 1970s.

The town of Pearce Arizona a Ghost Town
Pearce-Sunsites lies in the picturesque Sulphur Springs Valley between Willcox and Douglas, 85 miles southeast of Tucson. Pearce is home to the now-shuttered Commonwealth Mine, one of the state’s major silver producers from 1895 to 1942. But don’t pass it by – this ghost town is home to two properties in the National Register of Historic Places, the Old Pearce General Store (1896) and Our Lady of Victory Catholic Church (circa 1916). Several other historic adobe and frame structures – some intact, some in ruins – including an old cemetery that are scattered throughout town. It just takes a bit of imagination to picture what the town looked like in its heyday.

Detour (1945) [Film Noir] [Drama]
If you like this movie and our channel, please subscribe: | Piano player Al (Tom Neal) is bitter about having to work in a New York nightclub. After his girlfriend Sue (Claudia Drake) leaves to seek fame in Hollywood, he decides to join her. With little money, he has to hitchhike his way across the country. In Arizona, bookie Charles Haskell Jr. (Edmund MacDonald) gives him a ride in his convertible. Haskell has Al pass him pills several times along the way. That night, Al is driving while Haskell sleeps, when a rainstorm forces Al to pull over to put up the top. Unable to rouse Haskell, Al opens the passenger-side door. Haskell falls out and strikes his head on the ground. Al then realizes the bookie is dead. Fearful that the police will believe he killed Haskell, Al dumps the body off the side of the road, takes Haskell's money, clothes and identification, then drives away. After spending the night in a motel, Al picks up another hitchhiker, Vera (Ann Savage), at a gas station. By sheer bad luck, it turns out that the femme fatale had also been picked up by Haskell earlier. She scratched him deeply in the arm and got out after he tried to become too friendly. When Al identifies himself as Haskell, she blackmails him by threatening to turn him in.
In Hollywood, they rent an apartment, posing as Mr. and Mrs. Haskell to provide an address when they go to sell the car. However, Vera learns from a newspaper that Haskell's wealthy father is near death and looking for his son, who ran away as a youth after accidentally injuring his friend. Vera demands that Al impersonate Haskell, but Al balks at this notion, pointing out that he knows nothing about the dead man. Back in the apartment, Vera gets drunk, and they begin arguing. She threatens to call the police, running into the bedroom with the telephone and locking the door. She falls into a stupor on the bed, with the telephone cord tangled around her neck. Al tries to break the cord. Then, when he breaks down the door, he sees that he has accidentally strangled her. He goes hitchhiking again, but is picked up by the police.
