Join me for an ultra high definition real time driving tour of Deadwood, South Dakota!
Deadwood, South Dakota is the county seat of Lawrence County, South Dakota which means it is where the county courthouse is located. The population of Deadwood is about 1,500 people today, but during its height as a gold rush town had a population that might have reached as high as 25,000 people. Deadwood is located in the Black Hills Mountains.
Deadwood is famous for its history, and the entire town is listed as a historical landmark.
Despite the territory legally belonging to the Lakota people, settlers began encroaching on the area in the 1870s. In 1874 gold was discovered which kicked off the Black Hills Gold Rush. The population boom brought with it a reputation for the rough ways of the Wild West, with violence, brothels, and gambling. Including the infamous 1876 murder of Wild Bill Hickok.
Several famous Wild West personalities including Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane are buried in the Mount Moriah Cemetery located in Deadwood, South Dakota.
With changes to less accessible mining techniques, a smallpox epidemic, and a fire that burned down much of the town, many settlers who were hoping to strike it big in Deadwood moved on to other locations.
