More on Sedona AZ
Sedona was originally the homeland of the Yavapai and Apache Native American tribes. In 1876, the Native Americans were forcibly relocated to the San Carlos Indian Reservation, 180 miles to the southeast, a process which claimed many hundred lives among the 1,500 people who were forced to march the distance. In 1900, around two hundred Yavapai and Apache people were allowed to return to Verde Valley.
Sedona was a very rural part of Arizona. It did not receive electricity until the 1960's. The first European settler moved into Oak Creek Canyon in 1876. By the mid-1950's, the telephone directory listed only 155 names in the Sedona area.
