Fort Yuma in California and Arizona
Fort Yuma was first used as a United States military
post in 1849. The factiliti was originally called
Camp Calhoun, its name was changed to Camp Yuma in
1852, and it became Fort Yuma a few years later,
after barracks destroyed by a fire were rebuilt.
The Fort Yuma facility was transferred from the United
States Military to the U.S. Department of the Interior
and the Quechan Indian Tribe in 1884. It was used
as a Catholic boarding school until 1900.
