Rufus Buck Gang
The Rufus Buck Gang was a rare multi-racial gang. They were like any other outlaws, spending their days robbing stores and fighting with other gangs. All members ended up catching a death sentence after killing a US Marshall named John Garrett.
The Louisiana Purchase
The Wild West era begins roughly around the time of the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. The Western expansion developed land west of the Mississippi River. Obviously, Native American tribes already conquered that land, so a lot of issues arose when people came about trying to steal the land.
