Remarks: The Collector, Moellhausen, was part of a U.S railroad Survey route through Texas led by Amiel Weeks Whipple. Information about expeditions found here (http://www.kancoll.org/khq/1948/48_3_mollhaus.htm) and here (https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/bibliography/11139#/summary) and here (https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/175196#page/7/mode/1up )and here (https://www.davidrumsey.com/luna/servlet/detail/RUMSEY~8~1~256540~5520450:Map-illustrating-Baldwin-Mollhausen) and here (Reports of explorations and surveys for a railroad from the Mississippi river to the Pacific Ocean ... 1853-54.). His route (documented on p74 of the second link and on map link prior) takes him through the Canadian bottom on the south bank through TX. Hoorah Creek is mentioned in quotes in 'Reports of explorations and surveys for a railroad from the Mississippi river to the Pacific Ocean ... 1853-54', which indicates it is in the Gallinas Valley near the confluence with the Pecos at present day Las Vegas NM. Point placed at Gallinas Creek and error includes all of the stream from the foothills to the confluence with the Pecos.
