      "Descendants of John and Abigail Thurlo". Known as "Dot".

      1870 CENSUS: MO,Livingston Co-Fairview Twp: 22 Oct: Infant [David Oscar] age 0/12 bn Missouri, son of David M and Araminta Thurlo

      MG,DTH: "Descendants of John and Abigail Thurlo".

      NOTES: Lived in Stephens Co, OK with father until married. Father lived with him for a time after they married. Dot was reported hunting prairie chickens, packing them in lard and shipping them to Kansas City for a living. He is known to have owned and sold land in OK of the Washita River. He was in
      Arapaho in 1895-96 and probably father too, since they tended to stick together.
      Dot went to AZ 3 times before moving his family to Thomas AZ in 1905. Father may have lived there too before going back to New Mexico. David bought 160 acres of land with a big house for $3000 on the Gila River. With heavy rains and no flood control, the house flooded as the river changed its course. He traded his property for a good saddle horse and opend a general store in Ft Thomas, then he bough back the property for less than $100 back taxes and sold it to the McCuan cattle ranchers so their catte could get to the river to drink. The land was all sand and salt cedar and no good.
      Dot homesteaded on 160 acres where Goodyear, AZ is now. He sold the property and moved to Miami, Gila, AZ, selling it to move to Phoenix to sell cotton. During WWI they moved to Young, Gila, AZ for "good living" and to "get away from the war and the flu". He filed more homesteads in Young on Cherry Creek, later moving to Globe, Gila, AZ, and finally settled in Phoenix to sell chickens and turkeys until they were 90 yrs old
