Summary

Significance: This monument embraces 10 acres of land in
Santa Cruz County, Arizona, about 49 miles south of Tucson and 19 miles north of Hogales. It was created September 15, 1908. Upon the tract is located an ancient Spanish ruin, the Mission San Jose de Tumacacori, founded by the Jesuit priest, missionary, and explorer, Father Eusebio Francisco Kino, about 1691. The Sobaipuri Indians, who lived in the vicinity at that time, appear to have merged later with the Papago
tribe.
