By 1900, Utah, Colorado, and Idaho joined Wyoming in allowing women to vote. See “History” navigation bar above. Wyoming has the world’s thickest seam of coal (Campbell County). There are many coal mines, since 1925. Coal is very valuable with a low sulphur content, environmentally friendly. Wyoming \National Park Service photo produces a lot of oil and methane. The name Wyoming was adopted from two Delaware Indian words, MECHEWEAMI-ING. To the Indians it meant "at the big plains," or "on the great plain," certainly appropriate for Wyoming As you continue your genealogy search for ancestors, keep in mind the cattle trail drives from Texas, the OutLaw Trail, Military Forts and later years the gold,silver, coal, oil and methane.
