Here, the author came up with one entitled SCALPS, SOD AND BARRACKS. Actually, however, Ella Mae. Wingo did a real service to historians and researchers of the west because she actually wrote a story of the history of the old Forts of the West and including details, descriptions, locations and pictures of some of the rare, abandoned and decaying Forts. Look below to see if the one your ancestor served at is listed. Fun and unusual search. Please read this. There were many a western story published – the common ones about cowboy and Indians are listed on eCRATER every day but the rarer ones like this one about the Forts on the Western Fronts are seldom found. Although this is a small, consise story, it is evident that the author has done her homework. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out cause really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest. Here’s one of ‘em. Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western pioneers. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell.

It’s a shame that our past is being lost. It is simple as that. U S. ARMY FORT MEMORABILIAIS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING My wife kids me that after I find a piece I like, buy it, read it, research it, take a picture, scan it, write the blurb, pay the eCRATER entry fee and commission, that I end up making about 50 cents an hour. But, OH HOW I LOVE THIS OLD WESTERN HISTORY. What a story, Rare Story!!! Great Pictures. You will love it as it was published in this old complete unusual western magazine of many years ago. The issue is in excellent condition, the cover is pristine and in vibrant color. As clearly stated in my description, this is featured story in a rarely found and seldom read unusual and complete western magazine. I don't give out name of publication or date because I have caught competitors copying my index and work and trying to sell it as theirs. I hope you understand.
