| Buckeye Post Office was established on the Buckeye Ranch. (Laramie Republican May 11, 1909, page 3) "Probably the best known among the older ranches of the Centennial Valley is the Buckeye Ranch owned, in the early days, by the Dole Brothers who operated under the name of the Albany Land and Cattle Company. ... About 1880 the Dole Brothers came out from Ohio and purchased the ranch and they were the first ones to make extensive water developments on the ranch, ... The name Buckeye was taken from the nickname of the Dole Brothers' home state, Ohio." (Burns) |
