St. Edward's Catholic Church, Wind River Reservation

These are photographs of St. Edward's Catholic Church, north of Riverton, Wyoming and near Kinnear. I had this one mislabeled earlier, so my apologies for any confusion. This church was moved to this location in 1977. It had originally been located in Pavillion, some miles away, and was built in 1924.

Roman Catholic Blessed Sacrament Mission Church, Ft. Washakie Wyoming

This is Blessed Sacrament Mission Church in Ft. Washakie, Wyoming. Ft. Washakie is the seat of government for the Wind River Indian Reservation, a very large Shoshone and Arapaho Reservation in Wyoming.

St. Stephens Mission, St. Stephens Wyoming, Wind River Indian Reservation


This photograph depicts the Roman Catholic Mission church at St. Stephens, Wyoming. The Mission itself, established by the Jesuits, dates to May 1884. The original church was destroyed by a fire in 1928, and I presume the current one was built shortly thereafter.

I'm not sure what this building was originally constructed as, or what its complete function is today, although it does house the post office at St. Stephens. It's next to the church.
