Yes, I have a fair ammount of information about the tale of Lieut. Mack Richardson and Anna Kelly. A sad tale and loaded with all kinds of tragic fall out in our family. I was able to find details of this story only a few years ago. The family story I was told by my father was not very complete, to say the least. I don't think he knew much about this or what was to follow. I would love to talk to you about this and find out what you know. Please contact me. We have a lot of family history to talk about. email sam.thornham@comcast.net I live in Denver,CO Hope to hear from you soon. Michelle : I posted a short reply to the above in the wrong place.

Jesse Thornham's stepfather, Capt. Wm. Kelly's daughter Anna Kelly, was engaged to my Great Grandfather, Lieut. Mack Richardson. Do you have any family lore regarding this? It is a long and sordid tale and a mystery I have been trying to unravel for almost a year. Hopefully you still get email notifications from your original post almost a year ago. This article is fascinating. I grew up watching 'Gunsmoke', of course and it certainly does lend credence to the TV stories from the 'Wild West'. The authors did a wonderful job in writing it!

As we know, Holliday is a dentist, however, he "extracts" the bullet from Kenedy. Ive read alot on Holliday, and I've never heard about this incident. Nor, have I heard that this is how Holliday meetts Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson, and the other deputies. Is this a story made up by Hollywood, because, in the beginning of the movie, it says "this is a true story I just watched the new movie, Wyatt Earps Revenge, and this movie eluded to the fact that he and Dora Hand were in love, Also in this movie, when one of the Kenedy brothers get shot, they have to take him to a near by Dr, and it turns out to beDoc Holiday.
