Poston lobbied President Lincoln and Congress to create the Territory of Arizona[6] and was appointed Superintendent of Indian Affairs because of his familiarity with the Native populations of the area.[7] The tomb can be accessed by a {{convert|0.6|mi|adj=on}} trail starting from the trailhead near Hunt Highway.[8] References1. ^1 {{cite ngs |pid=DU0546 |name=Poston |accessdate=2014-02-08}} {{Mountains of Arizona}}{{Arizona-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite loj |id=80090 |name=Poston Butte AZ |accessdate=2016-08-19}} 3. ^{{cite gnis |id=9682 |name=Poston Butte |accessdate=2014-02-08}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://repository.azgs.az.gov/category/place-keywords/poston-butte |title=Poston Butte |publisher=AZGS Document Repository |accessdate=2014-02-08}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://archives.arizonageologicalsoc.org/guidebooks/AGS_1973-11_Poston_Mineral_S.pdf |title=Poston, Butte-Mineral, Eutte-Sacaton: Fall Field Trip |publisher=Arizona Geological Society |date=November 11, 1973 |accessdate=2014-02-08}} 6. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.gutenberg.org/catalog/world/readfile?fk_files=1479850&pageno=31 |title=Building a State in Apache Land |last=Poston |first=Charles D. |page=31 |accessdate=2014-02-08}} 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.gutenberg.org/catalog/world/readfile?fk_files=1479850&pageno=31 |title=Building a State in Apache Land |last=Poston |first=Charles D. |page=32 |accessdate=2014-02-08}} 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://hikearizona.com/decoder.php?ZTN=1977 |title=Poston's Butte – Florence, AZ |publisher=HikeArizona.com |accessdate=2014-02-08}} 4 : Landforms of Pinal County, Arizona|Mountains of Arizona|Florence, Arizona|Mountains of Pinal County, Arizona |
