There is a Bullard Mine listed as being run by John Bullard, the same as the president of this company. We were unable to ascertain the significance of who or what Rand refers to (Copper Handbook, 1912, p.158). In Arizona Place Names, there is a Bullard Peak near Silver City, New Mexico, where Capt. John Bullard lead an attack on Apaches and wiped them out. At the last minute, an Apache shot an arrow which mortally wounded the Captain. The peak was named for him. This Bullard may have been the father of the Bullard's that run this company and mineCity: YumaCounty: EllsworthState: AR
