OLSON SHt State Historical Society The 100 th anniversary of the i founding of Fort Kearney will be I celebrated September 22. There ny State Park on that day and a postage stamp commemorating the centennial will go on sale at Minden. Fort Kearny on the Platte was established in 1843, six years be fore the creation of Nebraska territory. The original Fort Kear ny had been located on the Mis souri, near the site of Nebraska City, in 1846. The Army soon discovered, however, that most of the over land traffic which the fort was established to protect by passed the Missouri location. Conss quently, in 1847 Lt. D. P. Wood bury was sent on a scouting trip to select a new location. He chose a site on the Platte. 97 miles west of the Missouri, and in the spring of the next year the troops were moved. The new fort rapidly developed into one of the most important stops on the long trail to the' West All of the roads from the roads frcm the Missouri River converged just east of Fort Kearny, and during the period of heavy overland migration, thou sands of emigrants passed by it each year. In his report for 1849, for example, the Secretary of War stated that "during the past eighteen months nearly 30,000 people passed Fort Kearny on their wav to California, Oregon, and Salt Lake." In the minds of many of the" travelers. Fort Kearny was the jumping-off place to the un known. By the middle fifties, the route east of the fort was fair ly safe and fairly well-known. West of Kearny, however, was the Indian country, and many travel ers felt safe only in the presence of military escorts furnished from the garrison at the fort. Fort Kearny never was the scene of bloody Indian battles such as marked the history of some of the posts farther west, although many of the troops from its garrison engaged the red WANTED: Old live barn pigeons.

Fort Kearny was the center of a tremendous amount of civiliaan activity. The great traffic past the fort made it an ideal place for the establishment of repair shops, saloons, and other business activities. It was an im portant stop on the Pony Express. The Overland Stage maintained a station there. For a while it was the western terminal of the telegraph line.
