From Syria 2 USA (Arizona), The Hi Jolly Monument is a grave site in the Hi Jolly Cemetery
The Hi Jolly Monument is a grave site in the Hi Jolly Cemetery located at Quartzsite, Arizona, United States, marking the grave of Hi Jolly, a Syrian-born camel driver brought to the United States in 1856 to drive camels for the US Cavalry. The site is located halfway between Phoenix, Arizona, and Los Angeles, California. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.
Hi Jolly was born in Syria in 1828 as Philip Tedro, an Ottoman subject of Syrian and Greek parentage. Upon converting to Islam and making a pilgrimage to Mecca, he became known as Hadji Ali (later Americanized to Hi Jolly). He migrated to the United States in 1856 after being recruited in Smyrna, Greece by the US Army as a camel driver/tender. At the time, the United States Secretary of War Jefferson Davis wanted to try using camel transport to move people and freight over western deserts.
Under the command of Lt. Edward Fitzgerald Beale, the United States Camel Corps was initially a success. In June 1857, Hi Jolly was lead camel driver for a round trip between Texas and California. By 1859, however, only Hi Jolly and "Greek George" remained of the ten camel drivers originally hired. After the camel experiment ended, Hi Jolly remained in the southwest, where he became a prospector, desert guide, mail courier, and freight hauler.
