Healthcare In The American Frontier - Living History

The Fort Wallace Museum hosted more than a dozen living history stations where school children had opportunities to learn about how people lived during the 1800s in the American West. This station featured a living history actor who tells the stories about the state of medical care during the 1800s presented to school children at the museum in Wallace, Kansas. #LivingHistory #WallaceKansas #HeritagePreservation #GoldProspecting

I spent four days in Wallace, Kansas documenting the Fort Wallace Museum on the first day then three days of activities during the "Taking the Smoky Hill to Santa Fe" living history exposition. My documentation includes several hours of video that will be available on this channel and nearly 200 photos that will be featured on my website along with videos embedded in the web pages. Those resources are a work in progress and can be found here:
