Sold! Santa Ana Pueblo Buys Alamo Ranch

The Albuquerque Journal reports that the King Brothers’ Alamo Ranch was acquired by the Santa Ana Pueblo in June. “We’re glad that they purchased the ranch,” said Bill King, a son of former New Mexico Governor Bruce King who bought the ranch in 1961 with two brothers. “They’ve been our neighbors for a long time,” King added.
