  • Summer 2017 Jackson Hole by Number: Using Primary Sources to Color Your Story
    Historical Society & Museum Chronicle VOLUME XXXVII NO. 3 Summer 2017 Jackson Hole by Number: Using Primary Sources to Color Your Story by Samantha Ford, JHHSM staff This summer the museum received an inquiry about the birthplaces of the earliest homesteaders in the valley. Where did these people come from? How far had they potentially traveled to get here? At first, it might seem like a monumental task to track down and compile the birthplaces of all 651 people living in the valley during the early homesteading era (1890-1900). How many records would that entail? Would the time spent equal the benefit of having that kind of information? Both answers are simple: just one source is needed, and the information would help to create a more detailed story about the valley’s history. The United States Census is an integral member in the tool belt of the genealogist, or anyone conducting historical research. ABOUT THE CENSUS The data collected in a Census was a means to track the growth of the country. This information was used to predict future needs and to plan for sustainable town/city and territory growth. The first Census was conducted in 1790, and the most recent in 2010. The Census of 1850 included the first detailed account of social issues, city infrastructure, industrial and agricultural growth. This same year, all members of a household were listed with name, age, race, education, birthplace and occupation.

  • Camp Cornhusker Mountain Man Program Guide 2020
    Camp Cornhusker Mountain Man Program Guide 2020 The settling of the Western Frontier began with the Lewis and Clark Expedition in 1804. After that expedition the “Western Expansion” was greatly enhanced by the experiences and knowledge gained by the “Mountaineers” as they called themselves. Today we know them as Mountain Men, both men and women. The Trappers’ life on the frontier was one of skill and toughness. Not only was he a trapper and woodsman they were also traders, blacksmiths, cowboys, horse wranglers, teamsters, doctors, gunsmiths, tailors, explorers, packers and guides. One railroad executive commented that the western expansion would have lasted well into the Twentieth Century without the help of these experienced guides. Many of those guides had previously been Mountain Men. A Mountain Man had to be constantly alert for signs of danger and ready for immediate action. Long periods of time often passed without seeing another person, it was necessary that they were self-sufficient, able to live from what nature provided. They had to possess that spirit of adventure that makes a person wonder just what is up the river and over the mountain, then go and find out, regardless of time or danger. In today’s society a great deal of this spirit has been lost. The lifestyle for much of our populace today has changed to dependence upon others in our society being guided by the law to assist them through life. We are trying to preserve the spirit of the original Mountain Men and bring back some of what has been lost. We want individuals who are willing, at least for a short time, to step back in time and live life how it was meant to be; as free individuals, and true citizens of the wilderness.

COLORADO AS REFUGE 221 Carl Abbott Rocky Mountain Refuge: Constructing “Colorado” in Science Fiction On the publicity circuit for his apocalypse-vampire-quest novel The Passage (2010), Justin Cronin made a telling point to a Denver Post interviewer: “When you’re in Colorado you feel sheltered and hidden away. The mountains of Colorado are very good for that. It seemed like the perfect place for a top-secret installation” (Vidimos). Cronin is not a Coloradoan. Nevertheless, he had preexisting ideas about the state that he drew on for The Passage—ideas that he then made concrete by repeated visits to absorb the details of topography and light.
