One of a series of caches recognizing figures from Pueblo's early days.

---

Matthew Kinkead was an American who became a citizen of Mexico to acquire a land grant at Mora. By 1841, he and Teresita Suaso had started a ranch six miles above the mouth of the Fountain River; and in 1842 they were among the founders and early residents of Fort Pueblo.

Most of the information to create this series came from the following three books: Pueblo, an Illustrated History by Eleanor Fry & Ione Miller. 2001. Heritage Media Corp. Carlsbad, CA Pueblo, a Pictorial History by Joanne West Dodds. 1982. The Donning Company/Publishers. Norfolk, VA They All Came to Pueblo: a Social History by Joanne West Dodds. 1994. The Donning Company/Publishers. Virginia Beach, VA
