OHC NOTES

As the Article section states, the original occupants, pioneers Stefan and Suzanna Uhli and their infant daughter Elizabeth, seem like the most likely ghost suspects. Mr. Uhli, a German immigrant who arrived in Silver City in 1880, was one of the town’s first settlers and made his fortune during the mining boom.

After opening the Cave Saloon in 1897, he became well known for his brickwork. Many of Silver City’s adobe buildings were replaced with “Uhli brick.” In fact, a whole block in town was formerly called the “Uhli block.” The Cave Saloon building is now part of an antique mall. It appears that Stefan died in this home in 1903 at the age of 40, and his infant daughter Elizabeth died suddenly here at the tender age of two. Stefan loved his adopted town of Silver City and, as local lore has it, never left.
