Uinta County, Wyoming
Genealogy
At a first glance it might seem that the history of a tier of western counties
in the mountain state of Wyoming could hold but little of interest for the
general reader, and I must confess that when I began the collection of material
for these pages I had but an imperfect idea of the importance of the original
Uinta County. Its claims to attention as they have spread out before my view
are so many and so varied that my own limitations have been keenly felt.
Especially was this true of the badlands of the Bridger Basin, a section that
has contributed more than any other to the science of paleontology in the
United States.
