Notes |
After the Mexican-American War, U.S. boundary commissioner John Bartlett, who used the site as his field base camp for 8 months, described the building: "it is triangular in form, with circular towers on the corners. It is built of adobe, with walls from three to four feet in thickness, and a single opening on the eastern side." U.S. troops with Bartlett called the fort Cantonment Dawson. During 1852, the troops renamed the structure Fort Webster and used it to protect overland travelers bound for California. When miners reopened the copper works in 1858, the fort was again used for defense; the last recorded Apache attack on Santa Rita occurred in May 1869. Subsequently the fort fell into disuse. The corner of the fort nearest the creek was washed away by floods. The remainder of the building was used as a powder magazine, a storehouse, and a jail. With the introduction of large scale, open-pit mining in the 1910s the structure further deteriorated. By 1920, only the east tower stood. The Chino Mines Division of Kennecott Copper Corporation maintained the remaining tower and used it for storage. In 1952, it was removed prior to open-pit mining of the ground it once occupied.
