| Fort Collins situated on the Cache la Poudre River, is the largest city and county seat of Larimer County, Colorado. It is a large college town (home to Colorado State University) in the north central region of the state, along what is known as the Colorado Front Range. The population is currently estimated at 139,908.//Fort Collins was founded as a military outpost of the United States Army in 1864. There was a previous encampment, known as Camp Collins, on the Cache La Poudre River, near present-day Laporte. Camp Collins was erected during the Indian wars of the mid-1860s to protect the Overland mail route that had by this time detoured through the region. Travelers crossing the county on the Overland Trail would camp there, but a flood destroyed it in June 1864. Afterward, the commander of the fort wrote to the commandant of Fort Laramie in southeast Wyoming, Colonel William O. Collins, suggesting that a site several miles further down the Poudre would make a good location for the fort. The post was manned originally by two companies of the 11th Ohio Volunteer Cavalry and never had walls.Settlers began arriving in the vicinity of the fort nearly immediately. The fort was decommissioned in 1868 after Indian hostilities had diminished and the mails had been transferred to the newly completed railroads. The original fort site is now adjacent to the present historic "Old Town" portion of the city.Much earlier, in the spring of 1844, a twenty-year-old Missouri Frenchman, Antoine Janis, had also arrived in the area. "On the first of June, 1844, I stuck my claim in the valley, intending the location selected for my home should the country ever be settled. At the time the streams were all very high and the valley black with buffalo. . . . [After the gold fever of 1858] I moved over from Fort Laramie and settled on it. . . . One hundred and fifty lodges of Arapahoes moved there with me. . . .
