Q: How often did people bathe in the Old West?
A: This advertisement for $0.25 artesian baths appeared during 1885 in the Yellowstone Journal (Miles City, Montana). For most, a 25 cent bath would have cost an hour's wages or more. In 1885, few believed that cleanliness was next to godliness. A person’s cleanliness was not yet associated with moral and social standing. One source reported that in 1900 Americans averaged just 6 to 8 baths per year. Women typically washed their hair once per month. The first working-class houses with bathrooms would be built around 1900. Fewer than three percent of American homes were lit by electricity in 1900; and not many more had indoor toilets. Most of those upscale homes were larger cities.

Pvt. James William Nugent, 1900. Born in Ireland, Nugent had just celebrated his 18th birthday. He was stationed at Camp Merritt, located at Lame Deer, tribal headquarters for Montana's Northern Cheyenne Reservation. Camp Merritt was garrisoned by troops on a three-month rotation from Fort Keogh, adjacent to Miles City in eastern Montana. Nugent was in Troop F of the 1st Cavalry. Native Americans were confined to reservation lands, and could not leave without a pass.

Jim and his wife Anna started Nugent Transfer & Storage in Miles City. Until her death in 1975 at age 90, Anna owned the house at the NE corner of Pearl and Center, three blocks south of our family home. She and her husband were buried in Miles City.

Why Isn’t This Map in Our History Books?
A Map of Native Tribes in Pre-Colonial North America

Few people realize that the ancestors of Native Americans arrived in North America around 15,000 years ago. Over thousands of years, they built a rich world of diverse communities, complex societies, and distinct cultures—each deeply rooted in the land.

Before Christopher Columbus set foot in the Americas in 1492, the Indigenous population is estimated to have reached over 70 million. What is now the United States was home to roughly 562 tribes, each with its own language, traditions, and a deep spiritual connection to nature.

Some of the largest and most well-known tribes include the Cherokee, Navajo, Sioux, Iroquois, Apache, Comanche, Pawnee, Choctaw, Mohawk, Cree, and Ojibwa—each once flourishing and sovereign across vast regions of the continent.

The map below is a rare artifact that captures North America before European contact—a time many refer to as the “Glory Days” of Indigenous nations. While Mesoamerican civilizations like the Maya and Aztec fell early to Spanish conquest, many interior North American tribes remained autonomous, some resisting colonial forces well into the 19th and even 20th centuries.

At their peak, Native peoples across the Americas spoke close to 4,000 languages, reflecting a cultural diversity on par with the greatest civilizations in human history.

But the European conquest that began in 1492 brought catastrophe: pandemics, warfare, forced displacement, and slavery caused a dramatic collapse in Indigenous populations. When the United States was founded, Native tribes were officially regarded as “semi-sovereign nations,” yet they were increasingly pushed off their lands, silenced, and stripped of their autonomy.

This map is more than a geographic document—it is a memory of a thriving world erased from most textbooks. It serves as a powerful reminder of the richness, resilience, and rightful place of Indigenous peoples in the history of this land—before that history was rewritten by those who came to conquer it.
