Certification of record of filing of original articles of
association for the Maxwell Land Grant Company, signed by J. W. Raynolds, Secretary
of New Mexico, 1902. Part of MSS 147 BC (Item 2.5).
On January 8, 1841, Guadalupe Miranda and Charles Hipolite Trotier de Beaubien
petitioned Governor Manuel Armijo of Santa Fe for a tract of land. Two years later,
Armijo granted them the property. Lucien Bonaparte Maxwell arrived in Taos in 1841. He
married Luz Beaubien, daughter of Charles Beaubien, in 1844. Within a few years, Miranda
had moved to Mexico, and offered Beaubien his share of the land. Beaubien was not
interested, but his son-in-law, Lucien Maxwell seized the opportunity. In 1858,
Miranda's property was signed over to Maxwell for the sum of $2,745. This was the first
step in making Lucien Maxwell the largest individual land owner in the history of the
United States.
On May 6, 1869, the option to the Maxwell Land Grant was sold to Jerome Chaffee , George
Chilcott, and Charles Holly by Lucien and Luz Beaubien Maxwell. On June 12, 1870,
Maxwell was notified that Chaffee and the others had elected to exercise the option to
purchase, and that arrangements had been made for them to buy the property for
$1,350,000. On June 30, 1870, the transaction was completed.
Chaffee, Chilcott, and Holly had been negotiating with a group of British capitalists
who were interested in the land. They organized under New Mexico laws. Prominent New
Mexicans William A. Pile, Thomas Rush Spencer, and John S. Watts were chosen to "front"
for the English investors and file for incorporation as the Maxwell Land Grant and
Railway Company. Within 10 years, the Maxwell Land Grant and Railway Company had
collapsed.
On May 3, 1880, the Maxwell Land Grant Company, was organized under the laws of Holland.
The Maxwell Land Grant Co. was a joint-stock commercial association, with its
headquarters in Amsterdam and offices in New Mexico (Cimarron) and Colorado. The
articles of association state that the purpose of the Maxwell Land Grant Co. was to
"acquire ownership of, and to administer the landed property... originally known under
the name of the Beaubien and Miranda Grant and afterwards as the Maxwell Estate,
together with all the mines, arable lands, forests, buildings, etc. found thereon and
all the products, yield and increase thereof, to sell and trade in the same ... or ...
to dispose of the said property or any part thereof; with observance, however, of the
provisions of the Deed of Mortgage... [and] to do whatsoever the said Association shall
be lawfully entitled to do as owner thereof." The Company was involved in activities
including mining, timber, coal, farming, irrigation projects, plaster and cement
manufacturing. By 1960, the company sold off most of its land and retired from northern
New Mexico. As of 1980, the Maxwell Land Grant Company existed in the Netherlands under
the name of De Maxwell Petroleum Holding N.V., Amsterdam.
From the earliest days, when the Ute and Jicarilla Apaches considered the land theirs,
Beaubien/Miranda or Maxwell Land Grant has been controversial. At its maximum, this
grant contained a disputed 1,714,764.93 acres. The United States and the Maxwell Land
Grant Co. went to court over the "fraudulent" boundaries in 1887. The Maxwell Land Grant
Co. won the case, its title cleared. The decision was confirmed by the Supreme Court in
1887. Familiar New Mexicans who were investors with the Maxwell Land Grant Co. include
Stephen Elkins, Frank Springer, Thomas Catron.
This collection documents the operations of the Maxwell Land Grant Company, primarily in
New Mexico. It contains 75 bound volumes of letters; 83 bound volumes of ledgers, cash
books, journals, etc., and 2 scrapbooks. There are 85 archival boxes containing bank
statements, cancelled checks, land contracts, financial statements, correspondence,
maps, leases, legal documents, vouchers, receipts, and annual reports of the Maxwell
Land Grant Co. and its related business enterprises. The Maxwell Cattle Co., Aztec
Mining Company; Cimarron Lumber Co.; Springer Cement Co.; Vermejo Ditch Co.; Electric
Light Co. of Raton (N.M.); Springer and Moreno Valley Stage Co.; and St. Louis, Rocky
Mountain, and Pacific Railroad Co. are among the related business ventures documented in
the collection. Most of the material in the collection was generated in New Mexico,
however, there are items from New York (Board of Directors meeting minutes) and the
Netherlands.
The bound volumes, followed by the boxes, are arranged chronologically, by genre. Genres
are arranged alphabetically (cash books... day books... leases... ledgers, etc.).
Miscellaneous items, including other ventures are last. Two scrapbooks, both of which
focus predominantly on World War II, will be found at the end of the bound volumes. A
third scrapbook has been disassembled; the contents are now located in Box 45. Oversize
folder contains maps, newspapers, contracts, bonds.
Cash Books - Entries are made daily in chronological order, left hand page listing
"Receipts," right hand page listing "Disbursements." In later dates "accounts,"
"particulars" and "banks" are also listed.
