Hannagan Meadow, Arizona
Hannagan Meadow is an unincorporated community in Greenlee County, Arizona, elevation .
==History==
The explorer Coronado and his expedition passed through the area in the 1540s on their way from Mexico to Zuni,〔Tucker, Edwin A. and Fitzpatrick, George (1972) (''Men who matched the mountains: the Forest Service in the Southwest'' ) (p. 153-155), United States Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture, Washington D.C., citing a paper read by John D. Guthrie at the dedication of the Coronado Trail Road.〕 but it is unknown whether they passed by this particular site, although some have speculated that they may have.〔
The meadow was named after Robert Hannagan, a miner and cattle rancher from Nevada. One local legend is that Hannagan was chained to a tree near the meadow until his debt of $1,200 was paid off. Fortunately it was promptly paid by his son, but the name stuck.〔Youman, Becky (2006) ''Open Road's Best of Arizona'' Open Road, Cold Spring Harbor, New York, page 122, ISBN 1-59360-084-4〕 Another story suggests that Toles Cosper, a rancher from over to Luna, was riding with the young Hannagan when they came across the meadow during the 1870s. They flipped a coin to see which man they would name it after, and Hannagan won.〔Waite, Tessa (2003) ("History of Hannagan Meadow Lodge" ) pages 1–2〕
In 1909, while surveying for US Route 191, John D. Guthrie observed that "there was neither fence nor cabin at Hannagan Meadow."〔 However with the advent of road construction on the Coronado Trail Road (later Coronado Trail Scenic Byway) tourism became a possibility, and Toles Cosper's son, DeWitt Cosper, built a lodge there in 1926.〔 The Hannagan Meadow Lodge provided tourists and travelers with rental cabins, single rooms for rent and a general store. As of 2011, the Lodge is still there and still serving tourists and travelers.〔("Hannagan Meadow Lodge" )〕
