Notes
  • Significance: Located at the junction of the Ham's Fork and Black's Fork tributaries of the Green River, the Granger Stage Station is also the junction point of two major mail and migration routes through Wyoming: the Oregon and Overland Trails - the principle routes of the Pony Express and the Overland Stage, respectively. The structure is the successor to an older, no longer extant station on the Oregon Trail known as the Ham's Fork Station, a name sometimes used in reference to Granger. The construction of the new station most probably dates from the inauguration of the Overland Route in 1862.
  • Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: FN-14, FN-15
  • Survey number: HABS WY-67
  • Building/structure dates: ca. 1862 Initial Construction
