Fort Steilacoom was an ex-sheep ranch of the Puget Sound Agricultural Co., an off-shoot of the Hudson Bay Co., being no longer needed, was gladly leased to the Quartermaster’s Department for the use of the troops.1 Bennett Hill’s Co. of the First Artillery was the first to occupy it and we were his successors with Company C. of the Fourth Infrantry.2 The location was on the plain which is now the site of the Insane Asylum, and has many advantages.3 The soil was level and hard and had produced some magnificent oak trees on the edge of the parade ground overshadowing the officers’ quarters.
The Fourth Infantry occupied military posts throughout the west during the 1840s and 1850s. At the start of the Civil War it was called East.

We’ve attempted to connect the proton’s many faces to form the most complete picture yet.
