Bonnie & Clyde Lawmen Buried in Austin, Texas

[@MrHubbmuscle]

TY for posting your videos. My father passed away very recently and your videos take me away from the sadness. You all are the best. Much appreciated

[@jbenziggy]

Feeling blessed that you would say our videos take you away from the sadness of losing your dad. Sorry for your loss, pal. My father is approaching that age too when I will be losing him. Your comment touched me and I pinned it to the top. Blessings!

I remember meeting Clyde's brother. Of course I was just a young girl. Great video. Thank you

Hi ! A very interesting and informative vlog! Lots of bullet holes in the car ! Bonnie and Clyde were famous people now and back in the day ! My friend years ago had two horses named after them ! They always ran away, ate peoples gardens, and stood in the middle of the road when cars were driving through!! Aptly named I would say ! LoL !! Take care and have fun on your adventures !!!! Deborah. 🇨🇦

[@danellekewish4433]

That was a good video as it reminded me I saw the car up close Bonnie & Clyde were shot up in, sometime around 2007. It was on display at Boomtown, just outside of Reno, NV on Hwy 80. I had reached across the partition ropes and touched a bullet hole just before I saw a sign that read "Touching this car is believed to bring bad luck!" 😩

[@positivityplace]

yep, put it on pause and getting my coffee pot ready….be right back, always enjoy your videos

[@lesliegriffith9830]

James Michener taught history at Colorado State College now University Northern Colorado, in the 1930s. They filmed Centennial back in mid 1970s around Northern Colorado. Great fun watching them film it.

[@JustMe-cr6rd]

Another excellent episode. Impressed with Hamer's strength of character...a true lawman. I think he lived for truth and that's how he was able to marry his wife with her difficult past. What a time in America, when men were men. Scott said to let you know, not to touch the artifacts on the headstones...reverence. Thank you for another great episode!

Jeff. I enjoyed this video . I live near Navasota Texas. There is a statue of Frank Hamer in front of the courthouse. As the story goes he was City Marshal durring 1908 to 1911. The City asked the Texas Rangers for help as crime was extreme in this Boom town. Thank you for the great videos.

[@naturetrails8357]

a few months ago I read Frank Hamer biography it was a great read , very brave & interesting man , a Texas hero. thank for sharing this & this looks like a fascinating cemetery to visit. A hallowed place that seems to have many famous people in Texas history!

[@talesfromanoldmanpatoneal6372]

Frank Hamer is a legend in the law enforcement community. As a retired law enforcement officer I really enjoy your videos touching on the old Legends. Thanks for taking us on the adventure guys another great video.

[@jbenziggy]

I appreciate that. I didn't know you were in law enforcement! That is so cool. Can you imagine, though, what would happen to Hamer and his fellow officers if they "apprehended" a pair of notorious outlaws in the manner they did? They'd be serving time in prison!

[@talesfromanoldmanpatoneal6372]

[@whitedovetail]

I am really glad to finally see this show. Just as I expected you did an excellent job of digging up a lot more information than what I had provided. I think that James Michener is probably the most important person buried in that cemetery. Your descriptions of LBJ were spot on. He was one of the leaders of the "Good Ole Boys" in Texas. I actually got to go visit his ranch just outside of Johnson City, TX. And was able to do it during the period that he was our President. There were tons of Secret Service, Texas Rangers and DPS officers all over there. My Great Aunt took her Sister (my Grandmother), my Sister and my 3 brothers to go visit his ranch. It was quit impressive and beautiful. I will share a picture of us sitting on the fence at LBJ's home. In closing, I really do appreciate the job you have done here. Hope you enjoyed your time with your Son while you were in Austin! Take care!

[@terryeustice5399]

Thank you for this Historical account of these Rangers. They sounded like outlaws themselves. The actor was very good. Michener was very good. Thank you for sharing!

[@joelhurley2678]

Jeff, very interesting video thank you so much for sharing. My grandmother Tracy lived in Kansas in the Southeast corner of the state. She lived in a little town called capaldo which is now Frontenac Kansas, and when she was a young girl she remember seeing Bonnie and Clyde being chased by the Kansas state police after they had robbed a bank in Arma. My grandmother said she saw them a few times driving around Pittsburgh and capaldo because Bonnie and Clyde had family in Joplin Missouri. Another story I wanted to share when I worked for the Henry Ford Museum we had in our archives and article about one of the Ford Motor Company employees going down to Texas to pick up the car that was shot to Pieces by the police. It was such a well made car when Ford had the car driven back up it started on the first turn of the crank and it was driven back to Dearborn Michigan. The engineers up at Ford wanted to look at the car. I thought you might enjoy seeing that. Great video thank you for sharing

Sarah and Jeff thank you for another awesome video of Bonnie and Clyde this is wonderful you have gone above and beyond as usual and taking a lot of information and putting it together takes a lot of work I have seen the movie Bonnie and Clyde with Faye dunaway and Warren Beatty and matter fact it was just on recently but I've seen it already like 15 times I have not seen the one with Kevin Costner I was not aware of that one. Seems kind of bad though that the law took them down the way they did filling their cars full of holes and filling them with holes the way they did it they must have had a reason for doing it. I always wondered if there was another way that they could have taken them but maybe not anyway thank you for another awesome video I hope to see you again soon God bless love you lots. ❤️🙋

After the election, he was called "Landslide Lyndon." Dig aside, my mom and I went to the LBJ Library in Austin, where we saw a short film about his domestic accomplishments, which were legendary. It's a shame that he probably will be remembered mostly for the Vietnam War. His championship of Civil Rights made him a great president. That is his legacy. Lord knows what Goldwater would have done. BTW, I was a child in Fort Worth in '64, living with my mom and sister at our grandparent's home. I didn't know who or what a "Goldwater" was. All I knew is that it was worse than the devil. I hope you visited the Texas State Cemetery, where so many of the most influential people in Texas history lay. Beautiful, peaceful place. Good video.

I am very new to the History Hunters videos, having just discovered them on KZbin this past week. I am a history buff and so enjoy them very much. Thank you, your presentation is outstanding and I am hooked! I was surprised to learn James Michener is buried in Austin, he is one of my favorite authors and I have every one of his novels. I live in an area where part of Centennial was filmed and remember the excitement surrounding that. Also, the town boasts of being the boyhood home of Glenn Miller. I would love to see a video on this area, if you have not already covered it.

[@bevgreen8165]

Interesting video. Strange fact, or story. Relatives always claimed we had some connection to Bonnie or Clyde, but they never said which. Frankly, I'd rather be related to Connie and Floyd. And no, not the '71 XXX Connie and Floyd, but the other ones. Another interesting bit, my dad did the same kind of knocking around as Michener did, riding the rails and hitching. Born in Bangor ME, or was it Sulphur OK, or maybe Snowball AR? He claimed all three. Anyway, another enjoyable outing with the two of you!
