Biographical History

Military fort on Yellowstone River in Montana.

Fort Keogh was established in July 1876 near present-day Miles City, Mont. Col. Nelson A. Miles oversaw the construction. The fort served as a base for patrolling operations and campaigns against the Sioux and Cheyenne tribes. The fort was de-commissioned in the early 1900s, but was re-opened as a cavalry remount station during World War I.

From the description of Fort Keogh post commissary records, 1876-1893. (Montana Historical Society Library). WorldCat record id: 154692596
