I am looking for geanological information on the family of Cochise, the Famous Chiricahua Apache leader who dies in 1874. I am researching his relative, either a nephew or grandson names Antonio Apache (1872? - 1938. Can anyone provide information? I would be most appreciative. Thank you.

My G-G Grandfather is believed to be Cochise. My Grandmother is Napanee Inez Grayhorse Goforth. Her father is Benito Altaha Gohmehcias. Benito was one of the sons of Cochise. We can't prove this yet because the records burned in a fire. Benito died when Napanee was 10. She grew up in Murrow Indian Orphanage and then went to Bacone College in Muskogee, OK. We would love to find some way to prove this is all true. If anyone has more info. please contact me.

Many thanks to Natasha Goforth for her reply. I am looking for a geneaology that provides information on the family of Cochise. I specifically want information on a man whose was known as Antonio Apache. He was captured by the Military in Southeastern New Mexico in 1877, sent east and educated. He may have been adopted into a military family. I do not have that information yet. In 1893 he was an ethnologist at the World's Fair in Chicago. Later he was a businessman in Southern California. Military and school records report that he was the son of Juan who was the brother of Cochise. Another document says he was the grandson of Cochise.

I also have a photo of two women who are identified as daughters of Cochise, Dash-den-shoos and Naithlotonz. They were given the Anglo names of Bridget and Susan.

Can anyone help me with information about the relatives of Cochise and Antonio Apache. Thanks so much.

Hi David;

My Grandmother says her mother is the Granddaughter of Cochise, her life ended in Katula, Texas in the 20's.

My Grandmother doesn't talk much about this. I think she thinks I would kick up the dust and the mayhem of the past therefore making her life long endeavor of us intergrating into this rediculous "country" and lifestyle as a failure.

I hear them in my heart all the time. Judging by your few words I felt you've heard them to.

Do you?
