Grew up just outside of West Yellowstone Nevada City and Virginia City it was very influential when I was growing up as we would visit quite a bit there used to be a train house but it burned down it had some awesome engines in it . When ever I'm in that area I always visit . Nevada city has a great feel to it !!!
My family was on the Big Hole Ranch where one of the Plumber gang members had been hung. I often wondered what it looked like to have a Police Deputy swinging from the rafters of the Barn. I thought it was a real shame when the Hershey dozered the Ranch and set it all on fire. There went some real Montana history.
If it makes you feel any better there never really was an organized "Plummer Gang". There were some bad guys but no connections between them. And not all the guys hanged were deputies of Plummer, a duly elected sheriff.
Hmmmm. Wonder if he knew my cousin, Martin Persinger, who rode with Bloody Bill Anderson. For a bit, but then the Union soldiers caught him on his folks' ranch and shot him down like a dirty dog.
But I see no mention of Flopping Bill among the Vigilante crowd...was he? "On September 25, 1900 William Cantrell disembarked from a train in Kansas City, Missouri to water cattle he was transporting. His foot got caught in the tracks and he was struck and killed by the train. Most of his mangled body did not fall away from the train but was carried along with it until the train stopped in Miami, Oklahoma, where his body was discovered. He was buried in Miami, Oklahoma." Helluva way to go out.
