| *[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Boise '''Fort Boise''' ]-- The original [http://www.idahohistory.net/OTftboise.html Fort Boise] was built in 1834 by the British Hudson's Bay Company. It was located on the Boise River about seven miles upstream from its mouth on the Snake River, near the present town of Parma, Idaho. In 1838 it was moved to the mouth of the Boise River, on the Snake River. It was a supply point along the Oregon Trail until 1854, when it was abandoned due to flooding and attacks by Bannock Indians. A new Fort Boise was built near the present city of Boise, Idaho in 1863. A veterans' hospital was established on the grounds of the newer Fort Boise and the remainder of its site was turned over to the State of Idaho in 1944. (For additional history of Fort Boise, see the Idaho State Historical Society's Reference Series [http://www.idahohistory.net/Reference%20Series/0029.pdf No. 29] and [http://www.idahohistory.net/Reference%20Series/0356.pdf No. 356].) Textual records of this fort (also known as Boise Barracks), 1864-1913, including registers, reports, and correspondence, are in the National Archives and are described in [http://www.archives.gov/research/guide-fed-records/groups/393.html Records of United States Army, Continental Commands, 1821-1920], under the section entitled Records of Posts, 1820-1940 (Record Group 393.7). | | *[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Boise '''Fort Boise''' ]-- The original [http://www.idahohistory.net/OTftboise.html Fort Boise] was built in 1834 by the British Hudson's Bay Company.
