Chinese Massacre; Lee v Union Pacific
On 2 March 2019 I was able to attend the Rock Springs Massacre, Mock Trail, Lee v Union Pacific, at Western Wyoming Community College. It was wonderful, fascinating and informative. The massacre occurred in Rock Springs in September 1885 and our Roberts ancestors immigrated to the United States in April 1886, however they did not come to Rock springs for a couple of years after that. The mock trial was a very insightful opportunity to travel back in time and get a feel for Rock Springs during that era. The trial was full of historical content and they did a wonderful job re-enacting the time-period.
