on October 9, 2005

Homesteaded in 1879, the X Diamond near Springerville (pop. 1,972) has been a working cattle ranch since the early 1900s, when John and Molly Butler began a family ranching tradition. Located near the 26 Bar Ranch that was co-owned by John Wayne, the X Diamond still is owned by Butler descendants, who also have established the Little House Museum of Western history on the property.
