The Apache Kid, a notorious outlaw of the late 19th century, emerged as one of the most formidable Apache figures alongside Geronimo. He was born in the 1860s on the San Carlos Reservation in Arizona. Originally known as Haskay-bay-nay-ntayl, he was nicknamed 'Kid' due to the difficulty in pronouncing that name by citizens who met him.
Apache Kid was captured by the Yuma Indians as a boy, and after being released by the United States Army, he became an orphan on the streets in military camps. As a teenager, in the mid-1870s, Kid met and was essentially adopted by Al Sieber, Chief of the Army Scouts.
At the time, with the Southwest thwarted by Apache attacks, General George Crook devised a strategy to use Apache scouts against their fellow tribesmen. Enlisting Apache Indians from San Carlos and other reserves, these scouts expertly tracked down the hunted Apaches.
In 1881, Kid joined the ranks of the Indian Scouts, distinguishing himself in their service. Recognized for his outstanding performance, he attained the rank of sergeant major in July 1882. The following year saw his participation in General George Crook's expedition to the Sierra Madre.
The Geronimo Campaign of 1885-1886 found Kid in Mexico as early as 1885, accompanied by Chief of Scouts Al Sieber. When Sieber received his summons in the fall, Kid accompanied him back to San Carlos. Responding to Lieutenant Crawford's call to send a hundred scouts on duty in Mexico, Kid re-enlisted and began his journey south in late 1885.
It was the Mexican town of Huasabas, located along the Bavispe River, where a dangerous incident happened. Kid got involved in a riot while drunk and nearly lost his life. Finally, to prevent him from being hanged by Mexican authorities, Sieber sent him back north.
He is also sometimes referred to as the White Mountain Apache, but it doesn't fit his family background. Some sources say he is the son or grandson of Togodechuz/Togo-de-Chuz, the leader of the so-called "SI band" and that he has a very prominent position in that particular band.
Kid married another important family, became the son-in-law of the famous "SL band" frontman Eskiminzin, his wife possibly Nahthledeztelth. Because Eskiminizin was also the bandleader of another local group of Aravaipa, that earned him high status early on.
In May 1887, Sieber and several army officers left Fort San Carlos on business, Kid was put in charge of scouts in their absence. Despite the ban on brewing tiswin, a fermented beverage made from fruit or corn, upon reservation, the Indian Scouts decided to throw a party in the absence of white officers...
