Grew up in the west and miss it so very much- your pictures bring back many memories and make me want to travel again.

I have found that Cherokee blood runs in my family, and I am still pursuing the gravesite of Cherokee relatives . have not found resting place of joseph nun-nishau martin or other relatives, but am still searching.

My great-great-grandfather and his family were among the first settlers of Bannavck, spending the winter of 1862-63 there among the 300-400 souls who landed there after gold was discovered. He was the Miners Court judge and ran a hotel during Bannack's heyday; his children attended Lucia Darling's school. I visited Bannack for the first time in July 2014 and love these pictures...

Wow! I have loved your Legends of America for many years now. I have a keen interest in haunted places and history. I used to run a ghost hunting group called H.A.R.T (Haunted Activity Research Team) and have went to many places and states to seek the haunted.

Imagine to my surprise when I saw this months post with the story about Laura Ingalls Wilder and little house on the prairie. At my age of 52 I had no clue at all that the t.v. series was based on true stories and true people! How could I not know this? So this story has been a huge eye opener to me and I have been enjoying the facts, the story and pictures included!! Thank you so much for this! I will always remain a fan of LOA!

My 3x great-Grandfather, Jeremiah moved his family to Lompoc, CA in 1870's and was recorded as deputy Sheriff of Lompoc in 1880's Federal Census. His daughter married Robert J Broughton, becoming Santa Barbara's elected Sheriff for the county for 12 years...dying on January 1, 1895 from blood poisoning of an arrested criminal who bit him in the arm. He rests in Santa Barbara's cemetery with family members and Jeremiah & Minerva Friel. One of his experiences as Sheriff is written about in Walter A. Tompkins' book, STAGECOACH DAYS IN SANTA BARBARA COUNTY, 1986. On page 111, The Corliss Murders at Las Cruces. On page 87 is his picture. This little paperback also offers information on Stagecoach routes, Ten Commandments for Stage passengers, diagrams of different stagecoaches and landmarks and stops. I am always searching for more information about him than this one story... if you should know of any. Thanks, Robert P Friel

Im the great grandaughter of Gabriel Gonzales who is listed here as killing adolf harmon. He also killed another harmon brother as well . Gabriel's half brother was killed in the first gunfight. This was arevenge killing for harmon's earlier murder of a sheriffconstable. Thank u for including him. He also was a bootlegger in hislater years. His feud caused our family to lose the family fortune but i guess in those days ,vengeance and liquor were the name of the game
