John thankyou for posting the info :) As I was posting it appears so were you, anywho when I did get a half page writ - the puter froze grrrr - I had detailed my adventures in Missourah (grin) about how I never made it to the City of Kearney where Jesse was born, about Pretty boy Floyd and my friend now deceased who know Floyd's brother - about how this man was a Law Man!- about Pistol Pete a local charicter here in Oklahoma. Pistol Pete, came form back east at the end of the last century with his family and they settled in Misoooourah. One day when Pete was yet a small boy some men came to the family home and shot and killed his father before both Pete and his mother.
Pete spent his childhood and teenage years learning the trade of a Gun Slinger. He eventually got all the men who murdered his father. Part time law man rancher, he had a place near here. He was a good man. I believe his real name was Frank Lyons.
He was in Oklahoma before the land rush and took part in that too. Just one of them true stories here.
There is a little town which I just love called Engels where the the Dalton Gang hung out. This is an amazing place :0)
