Fort Wiki
Forts, Camps and Stations
FortWiki.com is dedicated to documenting the historical forts, camps and stations that provided security and protection for the United States and Canada. The goal is to combine the known public information about the forts, stations and batteries with detailed information from individual family histories and genealogies that may not be public. These histories and genealogies are rich with details about ancestors who lived, worked and fought at these forts and stations.

Southern States Forting TripWe are embarking on a trip through the southern states to document as many forts as we can along our route. You can see our route on our 2009 Southern Trip page. You can get Twitter updates daily at Twitter/FortWiki and you can get more substantial updates at the USForting.com. Let us know if you have any any suggestions for stops or places along the way that we should see. John People On Line<whosonline></whosonline> What's InsideUpdated CategoriesUSForting BlogWe have established a USForting.com Blog to help us describe our visits to forts and batteries.
