    I'm a member of The American Institute of Architects. The Earps' Colton, California cottage is definitely built in the later 1800s; certainly could be built before 1882. It would be nice if someone were willing to restore it; it is certainly small enough that it would not be too big of an endeavor.

      Any builder who's worth a damn, can build a structure to resemble 1880's architecture. The only way to know for sure would be to access the crawlspace and or the attic to examine the lumber used in that house.

    Hubby and I own a historic ranch in San Bernardino County. Building permits weren’t required in the County until 1949. I was looking for records on the main house, and there weren’t any, because it was built before permits were required. I was painting the bathroom, and I removed the medicine cabinet mirror. Behind it was a hand written date from September of 1942. Sometimes builders will carve their name and a date on a beam in the attic.
    I suspect the house you showed is from the 1800’s, but because permits weren’t required, no record exists. And some modification that required a permit was made in the 1970’s. Maybe a new roof or modern electrician wire upgrade.

When we told him the reason for our visit to his community, he offered to give us an escort to the cemetery. We thanked him for his kindness and appreciation for his service to the community. The respect for a fellow officer knows no time limit.very cool!

    My wife and I were in Tombstone AZ about 1 week ago. We visited the building where Morgan Earp was assassinated. Amazingly the photo that Jeff uses here matches the room to this day. The bar is gone but the back of the room remains intact. There is also a pool table in the spot where Morgan was shot. The proprietor, Cindy, came out and spoke with us. She was very knowledgeable and informative. We were standing on the very spot where this incident took place. Tombstone was a most interesting place and a lot of fun if you enjoy this history. My wife, who was not familiar with the story, enjoyed Tombstone immensely. Wooden sidewalks and dirt streets. We were there two days and enjoyed every minute. So much to see and to visit. Make sure you do a tour of the famous Birdcage Saloon and Theater. It's amazingly original and was one of the few buildings to survive a later fire. Brothel, Faro tables, gambling items, bar and entertainment stage all still in original condition. Many original artifacts. Boot Hill Grave Yard just outside town has 250 most interesting graves. Many murdered, hanged, shot, and victims of various incidents. Each has a story. A ton of old west history here.

    Our mountains didn't used to be arid. They used to be forested. The entire valley was wet with creeks and lakes. Before the time you talk about, the Mormons cleared the hills of trees, sending the lumber to Los Angeles. The loss of the trees decreased rain, and the sinking of wells took a lot of the ground water. I attended the 2013 ceremony dated on the flat stone. Several people, my sister included, wore period costumes to the event. As I recall, this site is a "most likely" site, as the absolute site is unknown. Jeff, when you went over what is called the Guthrie Interchange, I-10 and the 210, you crossed over Earp farmland. I have put flowers on the Earp graves at Mountain View Cemetery. I also taught my children how to shift our standard transmission car at that cemetery. We used to put flowers on the Earp graves when we did so. There are often flowers on those graves.

      Who was your mother’s family member??
      I am always looking for other people who are related to the Earps… My GGGmother on my mother’s side married Aurilla Sutherlands uncle on her father’s side…I am glad to have researched everything about the Sutherlands because not much is known about them…thanks ahead of time for your reply! I’d love to hear your family story…

    To correct the information stated in your introduction: Hermosa Cemetery is located in Colton, CA; not in neighboring Rialto or in the City of San Bernardino. Colton, CA is located in the County of San Bernardino.

    Yeah, I have say that Colton house was NOT built in the 70s it definitely has Victorian influences from the mid 1800s in its architecture and design. What would make sense, I think ,is that the current owners may not want their property turned into a tourist attraction. I could understand that.
