About William O. Collins

William Oliver Collins was an American attorney, politician, and Union Army officer who served in the cavalry during the Civil War and in the American West. He is the namesake for Fort Collins, Colorado, and Casper, Wyoming's name is derived from his son, Caspar W. Collins, who died nearby shortly after William's command of a garrison there.
