In August of 2001, archaeologists explored an area located within the historic Presidio neighborhood of downtown Tucson. Previous testing of the two lots, in conjunction with research in area libraries, revealed that the area had been the home of two prominent Tucson lawyers and their families from the late 1880s to the 1910s (Wocherl 2001). Numerous artifact-filled features surrounded the foundations of two homes and had the potential for providing a large amount of information about the lives...

Advocates wanted to know what was to become of these people. At first, the preservationists failed. The...
