RATHER predictably the middle and generally-used ford of the Arkansas on the Santa Fe trail's Cimarron desert route came to be known as Cimarron Crossing. However, prior to the 1860's this name was little used! Scattered information, brought together for the first time here, supplies proof, also, that the middle crossing was relocated at least twice between 1827 and the 1860's. In 1827 it was near "The Caches." From an early period (early 1830's?) till 1852, the main ford was west of present Ingalls. In a move instigated by the military, "Cimarron Crossing" then was shifted some eight and a half miles downriver to a site west of present Cimarron. (See map below, "Some Trails to Santa Fe Through Southwest Kansas.") Some Trails to Santa Fe Through Southwest Kansas The Arkansas River Route and Several Cutoffs via the Cimarron River Joseph C. Brown (the trail's surveyor, 1825-1827), in his report, located the middle crossing as follows:

Allison and Booth, known as famed prairie men, have determined to make a settlement at Walnut Creek on the Santa Fe road. A short time since . . . they started on an expedition to the gold region; their mules and provisions giving out, and not being able to purchase any on the road from any train, they abandoned the idea of going further toward the Wichita diggings, and returned here, determined to settle on Walnut Creek. Booth left a month or two since, and Allison this week, and from last reports of Booth's progress he was busily engaged in building houses and carrals etc. The Occidental Messenger In a later-day account, ex-cavalryman Robert M. Peck (who first crossed Walnut creek in 1857) commented on the "frontier 'ranches'" which were "mere trading posts" and gave this generalized description:
