Dedicated to the Otero Family and Other Arizona Pioneers

Otero is a name entitled to recognition in Arizona's glorious history. The first European land grant was given to Don Toribio (aka Torrevio) de Otero on January 10, 1789.

This blog is dedicated to those Arizona pioneers, like the Oteros, and their descendants, who helped shape Arizona's story.
