frontier units in Texas history, including the 10th
Cavalry, better known as the Buffalo Soldiers.
Reenactments, performed by volunteers,
include uniforms and procedures accurate to
the period. The Fort also sponsors a lively

“Excellent maintained fort in Texas”
As much as any frontier army installation, Fort
Richardson was responsible for the Anglo
settlement in north central Texas. It was one
installation in a system of forts along the Texas
frontier to protect and encourage settlement in
north central and west Texas. The 55 buildings,
many made of stone and cottonwood lumber,
fell into disrepair. The fort was declared a state
historic site in 1963.
