The Baxter Springs, Ks. Middle
School Students have input Cutler's
History of Kansas. They have done a great job. Their teacher is Caroline
Ward. Caroline and her husband, Tom, are the Kansas State Coordinators
for KsGenWeb. There are county links on the first page.

Andy Taylor, the Editor of the
Montgomery County Chronicle (published weekly
in Caney and Cherryvale) has been kind enough to share with us some
of his writings. I think you will enjoy them. No matter what aspect of
Montgomery County history you are interested in , you will find some good
information here. I know I did.

| One of Coffeyville's claims
to fame is that memorable day in October of 1892 when the Dalton Gang tried
to rob both local banks at one time. They lost... and have each succeeding
year during the reenactment of the raid each year in October. (The official
score is Citizens 105, Daltons 0) The Dalton family history and genealogy
(as much as is known) is at Kansas
Gunfighters: Daltons. To read more about some of our local Wild,
Wild West stories, visit Larry Frederick's home page. You can
also visit the home page of the Dalton
Museum in Coffeyville. Also look at the narative on Debbie Walford's
Labette County KSGenWeb
page...it's written by Janelle Osborne, the great granddaughter of the
Doctor that treated Emmett Dalton after the raid....he must have been pretty
good, since Emmett lived to an old age. (After he was released from his
"unfortunate incarceration", he moved to California!). |
