Gillette History
Gillette, Wyoming has a true American history. It was previously a tent town known as Donkey Town. Donkey Town was homesteaded by cattle ranchers in the late 1800s, and by the early 1900s, small coal mines had sprung up. Beginning in the seventies, coal mines were opened one right after the other - and now Gillette is home to seventeen mines altogether. A local surveyor, Edward Gillette, platted the area in 1891, and lots were then sold. That same year, the railroad arrived and with it, prosperity and developments.
