My daughter lived out there on Dunn road. Not to far from that marker. I wanted to go find it, I never did. People say there’s always fresh Flowers out their ether real or plastic. He still has descendents in Dona Ana county. An old Rancher friend of mine over at Animas told me that his grandad had the livery in Organ in those days. He said that his Dad and 2 of his brothers were on their way back from Dona Ana with a load of hay , and came upon that murder. The body was covered , and lotsa people had showed up by then. My great grandad meant Garrett in 1898. My great grandad was only 14 working for freighters between Hope and Tularosa. He said Garrett and 2 deputies traveled with them for a day , then camped with them. He never believed Garrett killed the kid. He always thought that the Sante fe ring wanted and paid him too, because the kid was bringing national attention to their corruption. His death was faked, Garrett wrote a big BS story. And the kid died an old man in Prescott after living in Ramaha NM, his whole life. Well that was his story. Good vid , Brett. Keep that NM history coming.

[@warrendelay]

And where have you derived the information that leads you to your opinion of Pat Garrett?

[@ldg2655]

I think so, too. I also wonder why Billy was buried so quick. Such a notorious “outlaw”, who had been on the run so long, you’d think they post him up in a coffin in town for bragging rights. His deputies even said, when flipping the body over, “you shot the wrong man”. I THINK there was another Billy in Billy Antrim’s group. I think that, failing several times to get Billy Antrim, Pat shot first and then buried the body quick and lied about which Billy it was..

Enjoyed that story . I never knew the Pat Garrett / Billy the Kid saga happend around Las Cruces area. I've seen several different old movies about them. That just got by me , glad to see you talk about it. Looked like Bonnie was wanting some more hay or something while you were talking . Kind of got a kick out of that ! 8 ) Funny , I watch another YT channel out of Las Cruces , you might even know the guy. His channel I called " Muddy Water Catfishing " Kris , Umm can't think of his last name. You wouldn't believe the big ole flathead catfish he catches out of the Rio Grande !

My Mother, God Bless Her, was originally from S.W. Missouri. In the family tree somewhere are the James Boys along with civil war vets and a " Regulator" from just after the civil war. He was hanged for his trouble.

[@Aartist1]

That’s one place in that country I never actually stopped by and looked at. My father had old Polaroids of the site from the early 70’s…. Think I might just head there the next time I visit Las Cruces…I read the book about Colonel Fountain way back and I actually married a descendent of Oliver Lees… I didn’t know that until after we were married and then I gave her crap about it. I might ask some of the folks, if I ever see them again, what their oral history about their family that came from that mess of people you named in this video. I know one of those families descendants that owed my parents a huge sum of money from their charge account. I asked my mom about it way back and she told me that the man told them ( my dad and my mom) that he didn’t pay his wife’s bills… my mom finally burned the old box of unpaid charge accounts from many folks in that area… but that one family always had that stigma that hung over their heads with myself… some 55 years later

[@jharbo1]

It was probably a buckboard carriage, I don't think they have springs like a coach or a buggie would. so, yeah, it was bumpity bump on the rumpity rump, lol. Anyway, yes, I would love for you to dive deeper into the story of Garrett's demise, 'cause he was a rustler in the same gang and William Bonney, and he MURDERED him.

Fisher could tell stories for hours. Dad also trade with Pobars Chevron during that time.
