History of Aviation
The wife of Aviator Calbraith Rogers, Mabel Rogers formed the Rodgers Aviation Company. This company organized flights durning exhibition events (September 17, 1914). Rogers Aviation aviator J Floyd Smith flew from the Clayton Fair Grounds to a point near the Clayton Post Office where he dropped the mail from the plane. The mail was then retrieved and taken to the post office.
On March 9, 1916 Pancho Villa crossed the US border from Mexico attaching Columbus NM. The US 13th Cavalry retaliated and chased Villa's revolutionary band back into Mexico and continued to pursue his retreat. To support this military operation, the US used aeroplanes from the 1st Aero Squadron to bring supplies to the US troops. During March 19-20, 1916 soldier's mail was picked up from the US pursuing troops and returned to Columbus NM.
