Frontier "hog ranches" were part saloon, part dance hall, and part brothel. These rip-roaring establishments usually sprung up around forts to provide diversion for the troops, although cowboys and locals were willing to pull up a stool at the bar as well. Author Larry Brown has gathered the stories of Wyoming's hog ranches from Mother Featherleg's place to the Nine Mile Ranch to the Hog Ranch at Fetterman. The colorful sites were brimming with sin, gunplay, murder, outlaws, and romance.

Petticoat Prisoners of Old Wyoming

What offenses did these women commit to cause them to be locked away for the protection of the citizens? These twenty-three women, wearing frills, lace, and their best bonnets, became guests at the Gray Bar Hotel in early Wyoming. Some of these petticoat prisoners may have been a threat to society: Anna Bruce baked poison into her father's plum pie; Eliza "Big Jack" Stewart shot a man in the neck at a dance. Others seem only to have been at the wrong place and time.
