Wagon Master

I was a wagon master or a wagon boss... A wagon master was the person hired to oversee the transportation of a group of wagons from one place to another. On the American frontier, the term usually applies to the person responsible for assisting groups of immigrants or pioneers from the eastern U.S. to the western U.S. Wagon masters were also hired to oversee shipments of cargo or mail. A group of wagons traveling together were referred to as a "train".

The job of wagon master was very important as the difference between a good and skilled wagon master and one who wasn't was often the difference between life and death. The wagon master had many responsibilities.

It was vital that the wagon master be a knowledgeable and skilled individual in order for the people and goods to travel safely across the country. The wagon master also had to be familiar with the trail that they would be traveling. He would have to know what the terrain were going to be that they wagons were going to travel over, where the wagons could go and where they would not be able to go.

It was important that the wagon master also have experience at such things as:

- Survival
- Fighting/warfare – to fend off attacks
- Animal Husbandry – to care for sick and injured animals
- Mechanics – to repair broken wagons
- Hunting - to supplement the immigrant's diet along the journey
- Climate/weather – so he could determine when a storm would make travel too dangerous
- Terrain – to know where to go that a wagon could get through
- Medical/dental knowledge
- Negotiating & counseling to handle disputes between land owners, outlaws, Native Americans, or between those within the group
