  • Join us as we visit every historic building in Lincoln, New Mexico, and explore the history of the Wild West in America's best-preserved frontier town. The story of Lincoln is forever linked with legendary figures including William Bonney (alias Billy the Kid), Pat Garrett, John Chisum, John Tunstall, and many more characters associated with the bloody Lincoln County War-but the story of Lincoln started long before this bloody feud and is still being written today. Learn about the earliest Hispanic pioneers in the region who settled in the Southwest; the Anglo-American cowboys who moved into the area after the Civil War; and the men and women who worked to build a community in a remote part of the new United States. A walk through Lincoln takes you back in time to a period when the Territory of New Mexico was as wild as any town in the West; when the line between outlaw and lawman was blurred; and when more disputes were settled with bullets than with ballots.
    So come along with us for a walk down what President Rutherford B. Hayes called, “The Most Dangerous Street in America,” and explore Old Lincoln and many of the buildings and sites where history happened.
    If you like this video, check out our website at www.badhossmaps.com/ where you can purchase a complete, printed wall map of Lincoln showing all of its historic buildings, murder sites, old west shootouts and more. It is by far the most complete and accurate map of Historic Lincoln that has ever been produced.

    Why did Billy the Kid originally move to Lincoln New Mexico anyway? I knew he originally moved to Silver City with his mom. But I'm not sure what caused him to go to Lincoln.

    • @badhossmaps
      @badhossmaps  Год назад

      After his mother died in Silver City, he started getting in trouble so he ran off to Arizona. There he ended up killing Frank Cahill in a bar fight, fell in with a gang, and followed them to Lincoln. The rest is history!
