How are Fort Nisqually and Fort Vancouver connected?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Both Fort Vancouver and Fort Nisqually were part of the Hudson's Bay Company. The Hudson's Bay Company was a business enterprise, so neither of them were military forts, although there was later a U. S. Military fort called Fort Vancouver as well. Fort Nisqually later (about 1839) came under the jurisdiction of the Puget Sound Agricultural Company, a company created by the Hudson's Bay Company to carry out farming and ranching enterprises, while the HBC continued as a fur trading concern.
