Ever wonder who was Major William
Ormsby, namesake for the old Ormsby House casino in Carson City as well as for
Ormsby County (which was consolidated into the current Carson City combined
city-county government in 1969)? I tried to answer that question in a new
online article for the Carson City Visitors Bureau, which you can find at: http://visitcarsoncity.com/project/no-doubts-william-m-ormsbys-thirst-fortune-fame/.
