Anyone have insight on what the earliest pioneers wore? I know the coonskin cap stuff but I wonder what is true. " - the pioneers did come into Washington Co. with sheep. I also know that there were wolves, but they wore linsey -woolsy clothing. That famed hunting shirt that all the men wore was of that blend. You can’t have linsey-woolsy with out wool, and you can’t have wool without sheep. Everything that I have read says forget all that buckskin nonsence - they wore linsey-woolsy. The buckskin was used for moccasins, and as leggens over linsy-woolsy trousers in heavy brush." -eddie "No One Polled Me!"
