Wild Bill Hickcok
You have surely heard of “Wild Bill” Hickcok, as he is still a well known folk hero from the Wild West era. He was well known as a frontiersman, and he became famous due to his many alleged adventures…which, over time, were found to be tall tales. While playing a round of poker in 1876, he was shot and killed after insulting a man named Jack McCall. The next day, McCall came into a saloon in Deadwood and shot Hickcok in the back of the head as retribution.

Charlie Miller
This is Charlie Miller, or “Bronco Charlie,” as he was known. He was known for his work with the Pony Express, and he had a couple of reasons for his fame. First, he was the youngest member of the Pony Express, when he joined the organization at the age of 11. He was also known as the last member of the Pony Express, which technically didn’t even last for two years. He then joined “Buffalo Bill” Cody in his Wild West Show.
