Caption: Town of Ft. Steele Marker
Additional Description: Captions: (top & center right) When the military abandoned the fort in 1889 and cautioned off the buildings and property in 1892 some of the local businessmen and ranchers hoped that Ft. Steele would remain a town. The earliest plat for the township is shown here. We believe it is from 1896 since some of the buildings sold in 1892 are not indicated on the plat.; (bottom right) Aero Filling Station, Fort Steele, Wyoming.
