Biography of Martin T. Baskett

Martin Tyra Baskett was a sheep rancher near Shoshoni, Wyoming. He was born October 6, 1882 in Lexington, Kentucky, and died in April, 1965 in Casper, Wyoming. He was General Manager of Baskett Bros. & Lamb Wool Growers in the teens and 1920s, which later became just Baskett Brothers Wool Growers. In the late 1920s he advertised himself as a commission dealer in sheep, then again as a wool grower in the late 1930s through the 1950s. In 1960 he became a real estate broker, dealing in sheep, ranches, and range lands. He was chairman of the Wyoming Live Stock and Sanitary Board, as well as a member of the Board of Sheep Commissioners, the Wyoming State Soil Conservation Committee, the Natrona County Welfare Board, the Kalif Temple in Sheridan, and on the board of directors of the Wyoming Taxpayers Association.
