Curly Bill fired the fatal shot that killed Morgan. Stilwell took a shot at Wyatt and missed. He was berated by Curly, so when he found out that the Earps were in Tucson (via Harry Woods and John Behan) he went there but lost his own life in the process. Wyatt, who had originally planned to go to California and return, now had to change plans and move quickly.

Years ago there were dozens of shells found on the property. Someone did a lot of shooting (probably Frank, who was very likely the most dangerous man in what is erroneously refer to as the Clanton gang).

So grateful for the efforts made to mark Upson's grave. And thank you Pat Garrett for providing this resting place for Ash.

Thank you all for sharing this brief history lesson.

That's fantastic about Pat owning the plot. Thanks guys.

THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Neat; thank you for your time and effort in teaching history.

Cool content. Thank you!

It was Indian lands 😮

The Wild West is the reason America will ALWAYS BE A RACIST COUNTRY. 😐

I don’t know what to believe about the death of Billy the Kid! 🎉 Arthur Schaupp 🎉

INTERESTING AND SAD TO HEAR ABOUT LIFE BACK THEN,

I've bought and read that book featured at the beginning of this video called "The Captured" and it is awesome. I've read it several times now and it just captivates me every time I read it. I first read it on my iPhone through the iBooks app, but I liked it so much that I read it about three times, and finally looked for it on line and bought the hard cover edition of the book. I have no doubt that I will read it many more times in the future.

Best presentation on Earp ive seen.Never got the last quot by his last deputy tho.

I read all three books that Mark wrote and his research was spot on, you actually feel that Mark was present in Wichita, Dodge, and then Tombstone! Adobe Moon, Born To The Badge, and Promised Land are the three best books on Wyatt I have ever read and I highly recommend you buy them and enjoy them as I have! Thank you Mark Warren.

Audio is only on left side.

Thank you

Im 6'2" when i stand next to someone that is 5'8" they are small , but when i stand next to a person that is 6'4" i feel small. And thats only 2" difference. Im not used to seeing people taller then me. Its just perception.

in describing wyatt as a large man at six feet tall and 160 lbs. you said the average size back then was five feet six inches and 140 lbs. I don't know about that. Billy the kid was always described as five feet six and about 130-135 lbs. and was always looked on as small and physically weak by people who knew him . how do you reconcile these size descriptions ?

The sum total of the irony about Wyatt is he wasn't a gun toting honcho. He wasn't a gunman. He rarely carried a weapon, especially before Tombstone, when he wasn't acting in an official capacity. He's also remembered most for the street battle with the Clantons and McLaurys and coming away unscathed. Yet, Wyatt was deepest in the vacant lot, furthest away from the shooting (why it was called a street fight) and tussled with Ike Clanton, who also came away unscathed. No one wanted to risk shooting their own party member. Everyone else closer to the road or in the road was hit. Yet the single greatest moment of Wyatt's life, as far as gun smoke goes, was the battle with Curly Bil. That was an incredible battle and Wyatt was indeed lucky surviving that one. Had Curly's aim been a little more on point, Wyatt would have been blasted rather than Curly. Yet, people dont talk about that one much. They can't even agree that it happened or where it happened. Life is full of irony.

Doc Holliday done that that movie Tombstone was fantastic movie I've always believed that Doc Holliday was the one who killed Johnny Ringo and still to this day I will still believe that that movie should have been about Doc Holliday Wyatt Earp wasn't all people thought he was

Most men in those days were fearless and the circumstances of life at that time, especially for Lawmen and gamblers, etc provided more opportunity for men to display those qualities in a disagreement. Wyatt outlived everyone else so the books were written and centered on him, and being fearless was one of those qualities that stuck for a later generation, giving him that persona. But they were all fearless, Hickok, Holliday, the Kid amd even Wyatt's brothers.

I love these guys and really appreciate you making their talk available. The darn audio is sure hard to listen to though…. Thanks!👍

Excellent presentation of the man, the myth the legend

Why isn’t his gravesite taken care of? Being someone who use to mow and take care of cemeteries and graveyards, it’s sad to see such graves not take care of . That goes for those not known to historical figures..

Really?! Where's the history?! At least a short narrative, not just a headstone!

Very informative. Thank you

A full picture of the area of that time. So much good information. Thank you. Paul Marquez

Nice work. Keep the fires burning. Thank you. Paul M.

Good Stuff. Thank you. Paul M.

Most reports account that anywhere from 5-7 men were more then likely killed during this ride

Great content and beautifully presented thanks for the upload watching from Melbourne Australia

Bad*ss.

Great story to listen to. Thanks!

It's always entertaining watching present day myth building.

This was a great talk on the rangers. I've met all of these dedicated historians and have known Mike Cox for over 25 years.

Thanks for all the great content you make Wild West History Association; if folks who view these videos have yet to join the group, please consider it as they work very hard to make history stay alive. I am a member.

So glad the WWHA film crew discovered and documented this story of the last of the Daltons. It is overlooked by history and Jones deserves the recognition for his dedication to the state of Texas, for he has received almost no credit in history. The story of the Dalton Gang's demise at Coffeyville, Kansas when they foolishly decided to rob two banks at once is well known, including the fancy factory engraved Colt pistols they carried, but this is new. The narrator's deep southern accent does not hurt either! Dodging goats? Good sense of humor too! Join WWHA!

WOW, That was an amazing history lesson of the wild West, and most of it I didn't know. It's shocking how much of history gets distorted by those who (CLAIM) too often to be "Experts"? I'm 59 years old and I live in the U.K., I was brought up on a diet of western's and thankfully, REALLY GOOD ONES WITH REALLY GOOD ACTORS 👍😁✌🍻

Earp Vendetta Ride began March 20, 1882. My birthday (yes I'm a relative) March 20, 1982.

That was wonderful. I loved listening to you tell this story.

so far I haven't heard anything about the real Jake spoon.

Were there cowboys in the southeast like the Carolina’s?

From my research it's Buckskin Frank Leslie

Thanks for your time and attention to detail, Wild West History Association. It's great to keep history interesting.🔥

Bravo!

Norm and I would have come to this had we known!

Great video!

Agustice is my favorite character anyone has ever done the history of the movie that I've watched at least a dozen times never gets old. My wife has said many times I belong in that era of time as I've gotten older I started to understand why she would say this great video
