Tom Graham sold the ranch, after he moved to Tempe. The second story recalls that it was named after Miss Ola Young.

No matter which story is true, it should be noted that after the Pleasant Valley war had ended, the Young family did create a different atmosphere for the town. Today the tiny town is known as one of Arizona and last and cow towns and . Many visitors come to see where the feud began and to enjoy its natural scenery.

There are many versions of the Pleasant Valley War and many of the details are controversial. Stories range from James Stinson stating he would give a reward of the head of any man caught driving sheep over the Mogollon Rim, all the way to Stinson saying that his cattle kept disappearing and pretty soon the Grahams and the Tewksburys were fighting over them. There are many books and movies about this western battle. The following is a popular telling the events. One thing is for sure; the war was mainly between the Tewksbury and Graham families.

John Tewksbury arrived in Pleasant Valley in 1880, with his four sons named John, James, Junior and Edwin. All the boys were expert marksmen. Jim is described as being able to shoot backwards. It is believed; when he sensed trouble he would put the gun over his shoulder and kill his enemy without turning around. The Grahams came to Pleasant Valley in 1882. There were two brothers, named Tom and John. It wasn and #8217;t until 1884, before the Blevin family became a part of the Graham faction. Andy and Cooper and Blevin was one of the five Blevin boys that contributed to the on going war and is credited for being one of the most ruthless killers.

The story begins with the Tewksbury and and the Graham and already quarreled over cattle stolen from James Stinson, their employer, when the Tewksbury and gave protection to a b and of sheep driven over the Mogollon Rim in 1887 by the Daggs brothers. This was when the feud really got going.

The arrival of the sheep caused the settlers, who had previously not taken a part in the Tewksbury-Graham quarrel to unite in defending their range against the sheep. The defiant cattlemen killed a Navajo sheepherder and drove out or destroyed the sheep. The Tewksbury and retaliated and the struggle became a five-year feud that was responsible for 19 known deaths and was credited for many more. Attempts by the law to end the hostilities were futile. Every man who remained in the valley was eventually drawn into this conflict. An enemy was hunted like an animal and death was the penalty for an unguarded moment.

The feud ended in 1892, when Tom the last of the Grahams was killed in Tempe. Although, Tom Graham swore before he died that the men who had ambushed him were Ed Tewksbury and John Rhodes and witnesses confirmed their identify in court, they went free. The Pleasant Valley War will continue to be a part of the town of Young and a part of Arizona and Wild West history.
