McKinley County, New Mexico
.McKinley County, located in the northwestern part of the great state of New Mexico, was created on February 23, 1901. The county was named in honor of the 25th President of the United States, William McKinley. Spanning over 5,455 square miles, McKinley County has a rich blend of Native American and Hispanic cultural heritage.
Before European contact, this area was primarily inhabited by Native Americans, specifically the Navajo, Zuni, and Hopi tribes. The Spanish explorer Francisco Vazquez de Coronado arrived in the region in 1540, beginning the Spanish colonization process. The Navajo tribe fiercely resisted Spanish intrusion, but eventually, Spanish settlers made their presence felt in the area. In 1821, Mexico gained its independence from Spain, and the region became part of Mexico. Following the Mexican-American War, the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, signed in 1848, transferred much of the Southwest, including New Mexico, to the United States.
Early industries in the county included trading and ranching, which expanded when the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad (later the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway) was constructed through the region between 1880 and 1883. Gallup, the largest city in McKinley County, played a major role in coal mining and served as a hub for the railroad, especially during its heyday in the early 20th century.
McKinley County has a strong connection to Native American arts and crafts, particularly the Navajo Nation, which thrives on making traditional pottery, weaving, and jewelry. The county is home to several protected sites and monuments, including the Chaco Culture National Historical Park, which preserves the remains of an ancient Puebloan civilization dating back over a thousand years.
Fun fact: McKinley County is known for hosting the annual Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonial in the city of Gallup every August. This event brings together members of various tribes from across the United States to celebrate and showcase their traditional arts, crafts, and culture, including dance performances and traditional competitions.
