San Angelo, Texas, located in the heart of West Texas, was a bustling town during the Wild West era. It was established in 1867 as a frontier outpost, Fort Concho. Bartholomew J. DeWitt founded the village of Santa Angela outside the fort at the junction of the North and South Concho Rivers. He named the town after his wife, Carolina Angela. The name was eventually changed to San Angela. The name would change again to San Angelo in 1883 on the insistence of the United States Postal Service, as San Angela needed to be grammatically corrected in Spanish. It quickly became a hub for ranchers, traders, and pioneers. During this time, San Angelo was known for its cattle drives and reputation as one of the wildest towns in the West. Today, visitors to San Angelo can still experience the town's rich Western heritage at the Fort Concho National Historic Landmark and the San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts, which has an extensive collection of Western art.
