 Title:  Rosa Ronquillo Rhodes Collection 1911-2009 ead 
 Date(s):  1911-2009 
 Abstract:  Rosa Ronquillo Rhodes (1894-1982) was the postmistress on a ranch in Redington, Arizona (Pima County) from 1922-1936. Of Mexican descent, she was the first child in her family to become literate, and held a position that was central to the ranching community in which she lived. This collection of photographs, postcards, postal documents, and an oral history by her daughter portrays her life as a postmistress, as well as offers a glimpse into ranch life in rural Arizona during that period.
