Adeline and John Priquet were married in Idaho Springs on April 4 1867. Eleven children were born to the couple there. John had a homestead and ran a sawmill. By July of 1900 he moved the family to Saratoga. John and his sons cut cord wood at the Ferris Haggarty Mine. Around 1901 Joseph Riley born August 13 1869 had an argument with his father. He left the valley supposedly to go to Montana and then to Oregon. None of the family heard from him again. William Priquet drove the stagecoach to Saratoga and Encampment. On April 19 1907 Willie had stopped the coach to water the horses at Cow Creek near the Trowbridge Ranch. All but one passenger had alighted to stretch their legs. Willie was just watering the lead horses when they were startled by a clap of thunder. The lead horse reared striking Willie on the shoulder and the horses bolted. He made a desperate grab for the lines but missed and went down. All the horses and the stage ran over Willie leaving him fatally wounded. The lady passenger buttoned her coat and jumped from the coach receiving only minor bruises. Willie was only 29 years old. Carrie Felice Priquet was born September 24 1886.

During the 1930s he started the Platte Valley Express. For the next 40 years the truck line was to supply the Platte Valley with all types of freight from prescriptions to machinery. For some years Oscar and Melvin picked up the milk in cans from ranches around the valley and took it to the creamery in Rawlins. Later a tank truck was used to haul the milk from vats on each ranch. For a few years Oscar and Melvin ran the Encampment Garage. The light plant for the town was housed there.
