It was located in St. Michaels Arizona, on the Nav...ajo Indian Reservation. Please see the map below. It was operated from sometime before 1918 until at least 1941.
"St. Michaels" was originally named "Cienega Amarilla" (Spanish for Yellow Meadow) for the yellow late summer flowers and grass that grows here. The area was first noted by military men in 1850 when Lt. James Harvey Simpson named it "Sieneguilla de Maria". Construction on a Franciscan Mission started in 1896 using financing from Rev. Mother Katharine Drexel, who had founded the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament. Rev. Anselm Weber took over construction on October 11, 1897, also adopting the name Saint Michaels. This mission is where Fr. Berard Halle prepared a Navajo ethnologic dictionary in 1910.
