In The Fall Of 1867 The United States Army Established A Permanent Camp On The Plateau Where The North And Middle Concho Rivers Join. For Centuries, This High Open Plateau Had Remained Barren Except For Passing Expeditions Or Native American Hunting Parties. The Establishment Of Fort Concho Provided A Vital Link In The Line Of Frontier Defense And Led To The Development Of The Town Of San Angelo Across The North Concho River From The Military Post.In More Than Twenty Years Of Federal Service, Fort Concho Was Home To Companies Of Fifteen Regiments In The Regular United States Army, Including Col. Ranald S. Mackenzie'S Fourth Cavalry And Col. Benjamin Grierson'S Tenth Cavalry Of Buffalo Soldiers. The Post Provided A Focal Point For Major Campaigns Against The Comanches, Kiowas, And Apaches. Patrols From Fort Concho Charted Vast Areas Of Western Texas And Provided A Climate For Settlement On The Texas Frontier.
