Watervale, Arizona, was a small 19th-century settlement located in the Huachuca Mountains of Cochise County, primarily active during the late 1800s. It emerged as a modest stopover and milling site serving nearby mining operations, benefiting from its access to water—an invaluable resource in the arid frontier. Though never large, Watervale supported a few businesses, a mill, and ranching activity, catering to miners and travelers moving through the region. Like many such settlements, it faded as ore deposits dwindled and larger towns like Tombstone and Bisbee drew away economic activity. Today, little remains of Watervale beyond traces of its foundations and scattered historical references. The condition of this pair of Watervale jail keys is well preserved with oxidation and patina consistent with age but otherwise shows a well preserved condition. The measurements of this pair of keys is 4 1/2" x 2" x 1/2" and 5 7/8" x 2 1/8" x 3/8". The collective weight of this pair of keys is 6oz. LO210, LO209
