1900-1930
As identified from Publication Notices of Intent to show three or five year proof; Yearly Lists of Delinquent Property Taxes, Foreclosure of Mortgages,
Sale of Estate Notices, etc, published in Campbell County newspapers. These
newspapers were microfilmed by the Wyoming State Historical Society and they can
be found in the Campbell County Memorial Library, Gillette, Wyoming. The
newpaper references are as follows:
CCR, Campbell County Record  (June 27, 1918 - April 1925)
GN, The Gillette News (November 1, 1912 - April 25, 1925
NR, The News Record (April 25, 1925 - present)
and, BLM Index, the Bureau of Land Management, Patent Section, Cheyenne, WY

This is not a complete list, names could have been missed by the reader, the
notices may have been published newspapers in Moorcroft, Newcastle or Buffalo
depending on where the U S Land Office was located. Individuals doing
genealogy should always check the sources themselves using good genealogical
evidence procedures. This list is only issued as a tool for those seeking names
of ancesters who may have homesteaded in this small area of Wyoming during the
early Twentieth Century.  Be aware that the dates are only estimates and that
the compiler often could not read her own writing from 3x5 index cards. In
other words any data on this page should be verified by individual researchers
and never used as a reference source in established official family histories.

As of this date 12 June 2000, this list is not complete. Updates will be madeas soon as additional information is obtained and indexed.

CONTRIBUTOR'S NOTE: If any of these names are part of your family and would like a link to your site or an e-mail address just write to me and I will provide onehere. This will help others in their reseach as well looking for the same person or surname.
Additional Information I am trying to locate the names of all the original homesteaders who settled in or north/south of Rozet, Campbell County, Wyoming, the first half of the 20th Century. I am currently reading all the local newspapers from 1900-1949 on microfilm via the inter library loan from Campbell County Library. I was born 7 miles north of Rozet in 1936 so I have a keen interest in this particular area of Campbell County. I have quite a list of names obtained from the newspapers (land proof of entry, mostly) and the Rozet news columns along with Adon to the north and Dillinger communities to the south.
The area that I am looking in is:
Ranges 69 West and 70 West with:
The sections north of the Belle Fourche River in township 47 North
(Dillinger community)
All sections in Townships 48, 49, 50, 51, and 52 North ; and
The sections south of the Little Powder River in township 53 North
(Adon community)
For most I get the exact descriptions from the 3 year and 5 year proof on their claims.
Any help that you could provide me would greatly be helful Please e-mail me, Lorna.
