Fodor's Review:

Learn about the fierce Chiricahua Apaches and the fearless leaders Cochise and Geronimo at the Chiricahua Regional Museum and Research Center, located in downtown Willcox. Other interesting tidbits about the area can be found in displays featuring the U.S. Cavalry, a nice collection of rocks and minerals, and relics of the famed Butterfield Overland Stage Route. One oddity the museum points out is that the memoirs of Civil War general Orlando Willcox, for whom the town was named, don't even mention a visit to Arizona.
