A. H. Morehead: Probate Clerk and Masonic Grand Master in Silver City
In 1889, Morehead traveled to Kingston with Colonel Twomey to install officers of a new Masonic lodge and dedicate their hall [2]. The following year, as Grand Master Alexander Morehead, he called the Masonic Grand Lodge to order in Las Cruces [3]. Meanwhile, a committee investigating his probate clerk office noted his absence and difficulty obtaining records, including a warrant issued to Morehead for $142.40 that appeared on the bond record as $240.40 [1][
