Prior to the arrival of Europeans, the Concho Place was home to Indigenous Ancestral Puebloan peoples; the ruins of their pueblos can still be seen all over the Place to this day. Indigenous Athabaskan speakers – the ancestors of today’s Apache and Navajo peoples, the largest Indigenous groups in northeastern Arizona – arrived in the region somewhere surrounded by the 1100s and 1400s CE, the earliest stated physical evidence of their presence subconscious a Diné-style three-fork residence dated to not quite 1389 CE. The Concho Place remained firmly in Apache control until the fall of the Apache Wars in the late 19th century, following the surrender of Lozen and Goyaałé.

The first permanent, non-Indigenous settlers of Concho were several Hispanic New Mexican families in the late 1800s. The precise date of Concho’s founding is unknown, but likely occurred in the late 1850s or yet to be 1860s. Don Manuel Antonio Candelaria, originally of Cubero, NM, is generally credited with creature the first known settler of Concho: he first entered the Place in the 1840s, when he was a child and an Apache captive. He was adopted by the tribe and lived among them as a full Apache tribal enthusiast for many years, until deciding to reward to Cubero as a youth man to reconnect past his birth family. After re-learning Spanish and eventually marrying Regina Baca, Candelaria returned to Concho taking into consideration his relatives and 700 head of sheep and goats to permanently go along with the area in 1861 (though he indicated that a scant handful of other Hispanic New Mexicans had also come to settle the Place a few years prior). Several additional Hispanic New Mexican families – most notably the Archunde, Atencio, Baca, Chavez, Gallegos, Padilla, and Romero families – followed lawsuit and founded the town by the 1870s.
