I tried replying to the original sender but delivery failed so am posting my reply on the list. Arenal seems to be in New Mexico. Arizona didn't become a separate Territory from New Mexico until 1863. You can search on this site to find the county, latitude and longitude: http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/web_query.gnis_web_query_form The Family History Society of Arizona published a heads-of-household index to the 1910 Federal Census for Arizona Territory. However, we don't list the surname Stakum or any similar spelling. Happy hunting.
