William A. Rafferty was a solid Indian fighter, leading many scouts for the 2d Cavalry. As a major, he returned to Fort Huachuca in 1890 and married a Tucson woman. He eventually became a colonel of the 5 th Cavalry and commanded the District of Mayaguez, Puerto Rico in 1899, and the post of Fort Myer, Virginia, in 1900. He died in the Philippines in 1902 after falling from an elevated roadway. 18 HUACHUCA ILLUSTRATED
Officers and their families at Camp Huachuca. Lieutenant Hanna is in the lower right corner with his hand on the dog. Robert Hanna was an 1872 graduate from West Point and as a second lieutenant in B Company, 6 th Cavalry, was one of the original founders of Camp Huachuca. He was assigned to the Military Academy and retired in 1891 as a captain. He died in 1908, survived by his wife was the former Nettie L. Searle. Assigning patrolling duties to Captain Rafferty and Lieutenant Hanna, Whitside immediately began to construct habitable and even comfortable quarters for the troops. At the same time he undertook to convince superiors of the value of making the camp a permanent station and repeatedly petitioned higher headquarters for funds and supplies with which he could improve overall conditions at the camp. In his annual report for 1879, he gave a picture of the scope of the work that had thus far been accomplished. The buildings he describes were either wall tents or stockaded buildings roofed with canvas or mud. Officers live in framed hospital tents. Enlisted men live in framed A-tents floored and boarded up 3 1/2 feet. Two men to a tent. Kitchen and mess hall. ...Reading Room for Men. ...Also used for chapel and recreation. Post Hospital.
