Greetings neighbor. Message if you want a penpal.Welcome to the new site.

He was a dentist who contracted TB. At the time the only treatment was to head out west to dry, warm air and rest. He headed out there and became pals with the Earps, mainly Wyatt. He was a gambler and a drunk. When the shoot out against Ike Clanton and the McLaurys in the alley next to the OK Corral occured, he sided with the Earps. The fight was over the killing of one of the Earp brothers who was a lawman. If I remember right, he survived to die in bed of TB. The old west makes fascinating reading. Most way different than movies.

It might be disturbing that in 2005 this was the advanced TV series version of western history.
Yes, you also see doctoring/ dentisty techniques as well.

Of course YOU would turn around my point entirely, the teaching of Western History to young persons is primarily through what their parents (2005) view.

Well there you go, it is just like another episode from that 2005 TV Western, Deadwood.
BTW the midwest is pretty well represented here on this thread.
( Oregon resident by way of Boise,Id, Pocatello, Id, Tetonia, Id, Jackson Hole, Wy and Bozeman , Mt. and originally from Madison, Wi.)
Our highways were often old routes for wagons or cattle drives and referred to as Trails.The stops were sometimes forts, river crossings, indian/trapper villages and mining towns..and on rare occassions a canyon hideout.Before settlers, miners,cowboys and mountain men the animal's migrations determined our routes.

I chose Ashlander as my new moniker a few years after I had a Montana Acct. (mtncabingirl)
It is relative to my relocation to Oregon,
not Ashland , Wisconsin.
I studied the latitudes of my relocations and found my Ashland and an eastern Ashland are almost the same latitude.

On the other hand,
It'd take YOU a little longer .

I heard of him before, but I remember him (or at least a caricature of him) via the brilliant portrayal of him by Val Kilmer in Tombstone.

I have been to his grave site in Glenwood Springs, Colorado. In Glenwood Springs they have natural hot springs that back in Doc Holliday's time were used to treat tuberculosis patients.
