The M. L. Bishop House was placed on the National Register of Historic Places because of its association with the development of Casper and the surrounding area from a small village to a livestock center, and eventually, to an oil town.

The Bishop Home Family Museum connects visitors of all ages to the history of Casper, Natrona County, and Wyoming through a pioneer family who lived, laughed, and labored in this historic home for over 100 years.
