Description

This photo is of Charles H. Soper, Jr. who is the grandson of Prescott pioneer miner John Hutchins and son to Mae (Hutchins) and Charles W. Soper.

John Hutchins (b. 1826 (?) - d. August 25, 1914), was one of Prescott's early pioneers. He was a lifetime miner who owned and worked at many mines in the Yavapai County area, centering on the Groom Creek area.  He owned the Monte Cristo mine in the Hassayampa Mining District.  John was originally from Danielson borough in the town of Killingly, Windham County, Connecticut and came to Arizona Territory in 1867.  He was found dead from natural causes in his cabin near the Monte Cristo mine in 1914 and is buried in Citizens Cemetery in Prescott, Arizona.

Charles' mother, Mae, was born in April 1865 in Minnesota.  During the mid 1880s, she met and married Charles W. Soper.  They had two sons Charles Soper, Jr. (b. 1888) and Joseph R. Soper (b. 1891) while living in Bozeman, Montana Territory. Sometime between 1910-1915, the family moved to Chula Vista, San Diego County, California.
