We are an organization of avocational archeologists and historians interested in re-discovering lost history in the West Texas Region known as the Trans Pecos and the Concho Valley. This covers the southern border and Rio Grande area, up to Midland, and the western Concho Valley. Our projects mainly cover the historic period. Our projects use archeological procedures with deep-source document research. Our reports are provided to universities, professional publications, and historical archival centers interested in this region. This website is our effort to make those reports, videos, and events available to the general public. Membership is free.
For Zoom scheduling, contact Tom Ashmore directly - tcashmo@gmail.com
