Sounds good. I'm looking forward to info on Kid Curry and the rest of the Wild Bunch.
Not long ago, Butch Cassidy's revolver came up on auction, but it was a No-Sale. Not sure what the reserve was, but that would have been a neat shootin' iron.

I would be open to a new thread for each 'person of interest' or group as it may be.

I think every Single Action guy has a little John Wayne in him in spite of the fact that the Hollywood "Old West" bears little resemblance to reality. Heck, if I didn't sort of live in my own little world nowadays, I would go crazy in this backwards arse day and age. I say bring on the few real stories of Old West gunslingers!

I would like to add from California Alameda County Sheriff Harry Morse, the man who tracked down Black Bart. As a deputy I patrolled in an automoble the areas he patrolled using a horse and buggy. He was featured on an episode of Wild West Tech.

Miller: Image


Miller was hung by a lynch mob of approximately 40 people who rushed the jail and took Miller and 3 others. They took the men to a livery stable barn and hung them. In the picture, Miller is the man on the far left.

The other 3 men begged for their lives but Miller didn't. The event took place in Ada, Oklahoma. A town in the south central part of the state not far from the Okla/Tex border.

While in high school I came across a postcard copy of the picture shown here and researched it. The above information is what I remember finding out.

Orrin Porter Rockwell always interested me... The Mormons Avenging Angel .... He was one of the few that died of old age. Great posts!

I was always intrigued with the transitional guys. The ones who were really in the old west but lived into the 20th century and how they adapted. I have heard Bat Masterson became a baseball announcer. If this is true it is amazing. Ed
