We have all seen the movie Tombstone. And we all
cheered when Doc Holliday shot down Johnny Ringo. The
Truth is........ It never happened. Doctor John
Holliday was living in Gunnison Colorado on July 14,
1882, the day Ringo was found dead beneath a tree in
Arizona. Doc Holliday and Wyatt Earp were living in
Colorado fighting extradition to Arizona for the Murder of Frank Stillwell.
So who is this man Johnny Ringo? Who killed him?......
Johnny Ringo was born John Ringold. His death will
remain a mystery. The official cause of death was ruled
a suicide. Others say he was murdered by Buckskin Frank
Leslie after a drunken night on the town together. Even
Wyatt Earp is said to of claimed to of dispatched
Ringo.
The purpose of this page is to explore the life and
times of my name sake. This is a new section to my page
and will grow and change as I get time and new
information. I hope you enjoy!
