Yarnell Arizona Named for Admiral Yarnell Mystery
An old column traces Yarnell Arizona and Peoples Valley naming to Admiral Yarnell and a later homesteader. Letters between a Le Mars Iowa tourist and Yarnell postmaster reveal confusion over namesake and local history. A Prescott Evening Courier piece titled Old Cemetery at Yarnell is Dedicated is noted, while Admiral Yarnell and his wife near Newport Rhode Island turn eighty-two that fall.
