Scope and Contents

This collection consists of the digital data gifted to the Casper College Goodstein Foundation Library's Western History Center for Harry Ward's "Register: The Story of Casper's Irish Colony." Taken from the Introduction: "Casper Wyoming in the late 1800s and early 1900s had a large Irish immigrant population. Some came as late as the 1950s. Most were from a small area of West Cork centered around Bantry. Others came from Antrim, Armagh, Carlow, Cavan, Clare, Donegal, Down, Dublin, Galway, Kerry, Kildare, Longford, Mayo, Offaly, Rosscommon, Tipperary, Tyrone, Waterford, and Wicklow. Register attempts to list all these pioneers, their birthplaces, their birth and arrival dates, their spouses, and a bit of their stories. Register is published in two forms: A book, and a computer program. Both contain the same information. The program makes searches easy." The date on the discs the data versions were saved on listed March 17, 2003. The publication was copyrighted in 2002 by Bantry Productions.
