What is Colfax County War Overview about?
The Colfax County War was a violent conflict from 1873 to 1888 in New Mexico between settlers and the new owners of the Maxwell Land Grant, sparked by attempts to evict locals from their homes. The war involved significant violence, including the murder of key figures and retaliatory actions from both sides, resulting in an estimated 200 casualties. Ultimately, the conflict subsided with some settlers remaining on the land, while others were evicted as late as 1894.
