A yummy idea, Doug -
Unfortunately, although this second Jukes tree HAS outlasted a couple of histöric trestles (
!), the REAL ORIGINAL Jukes Tree died a long time ago. 
Or, more likely, it was cut down and useds to make the boards from which the current depot - or some other building in Chama - was fashioned.
