Life Sketch:  HOLE IN THE ROCK

Upon the celebration of her 80th birthday, she recalled Hole in the Rock and later pioneering experiences;   In 1850, the couple joined a wagon train of 99 families to move down to New Mexico. They were on the journey for two years, having to blaze their own trails most of the way. [Hole-in-the-rock was just the first leg of a long trip] The wagon train crossed the Colorado River on improvised rafts made of logs tied together. They had little trouble with Indians, for at that time most of the Indians whose territory they passed through were friendly. They would often go to the wagon camps to beg food and tease and annoy the women, knowing that the women were afraid of them, according to Mrs. Goddard. 


The wagon train went to Durango, Colo., where it stopped while the men of the families worked on the D. & R.G. Railroad, which was then under construction. After leaving Durango, they journeyed on to Gallup, N.M., which was nothing more than a blacksmith shop under a tree, she recalls. After going through Winslow, Ariz., the group went to Alma, N.M., arriving there the day after an Indian raid led by the famous chief Victorio. In the raid, the brother of Captain Cooney of the town's little garrison was killed, and Mrs. Goddard remembers that he was buried in a solid rock tomb, which is still a landmark there. From Alma, the wagon train journeyed on to Pleasanton, N.M., where the Goddards decided to make their home. They built a two-room home of solid concrete with small "portholes" for windows, the house being designed to withstand the many raids of Geronimo and his band of Apaches. The house was built in 1882, the year they arrived. Later, after the colony of Mormons there moved to Mexico, Mr. Goddard bought their land, and then bought the land where the soldiers were garrisoned, so that the Goddards acquired nearly all the property in the district, for ranching and farming.

In 1909, the family moved to Mesilla Park so that the seven younger children could attend college at New Mexico A. & M. Finally, in 1918, Mr. And Mrs. Goddard moved to El Paso and Mr. Goddard invested in real estate.

  1. Hi! I just left a big long comment detailing my line to Allen, but the computer ate it when I accidentally hit a wrong key. So - I'll leave this short note for now, and come back later and leave you a longer version again. :) THANK YOU for this page!!! What a miracle it is in MY life, and I am sure others appreciate it as well, they just haven't left any notes letting you know. (*ahem* that's the way it is too often, but Heavenly Father knows... I thank Him for leading me to your page, but want to thank you for having it for Him to guide me to) My name is Kari Taylor, by the way, first daughter of Robert Andrew Taylor and Janet Wight. Dad went back Home on June 20, 2013, while Mom was killed June 10, 1997 in an automobile accident. Thank you again, and God bless.
