Summary
Title, date and keywords based on information provided by the photographer.
In 1849, the U.S. Army took over Fort Laramie, established as Fort John, a private fur-trading fort in 1834, in order to protect westward-bound emigrants along trails across the Northern Plains. The fort was abandoned in 1890. Built in 1849, Old Bedlam is (as of 2015) the oldest standing building in Wyoming. It got its name from the days when it was home to boisterous bachelor soldiers at the fort.
