  • Life in the Wild West might have attracted a lot of people, but it doesn’t sound like the ideal life for a foodie. Options were often limited, but some people were still able to eat pretty well. Wyatt Earp’s life has been portrayed in all kinds of films, books, and TV shows over the years, but what did the man eat on a daily basis?
    After you get the obvious Tombstone frozen pizza joke out of the way, you’ll find that Earp actually had the opportunity to eat well, from steak and salmon to all kinds of world cuisine. Let’s take a look at what Wyatt Earp typically ate in a day.

    Back in the 1980s I used to go to the New Mexico gun shows every few weeks. Before I was old enough to buy guns I used to buy old west documents. I was a poor student so I would buy something, read it, then sell or trade it on for something different. Anyways, I ended up with a young girl's diary.
    I had to trade it off but that particular diary stuck in my mind. Her name was Beatrice, she was 12 and 13 in the diary I had. Her family moved to Tombstone so her father could work in the silver mine. She wrote about seeing Wyatt around town. I think she was kinda star struck because she wrote about hearing he was in town. Every time she saw him she described what he was wearing and where he went. One time she ran into him at the Ice Cream parlor. lol She wrote several pages about making eye contact with him and him tipping his hat, holding the door for her and calling her Mam. That appeared to be the highlight of her young life.
    I really regret selling that diary off. At the time I thought it was neat but the first hand accounts of Wyatt Earp made it on the expensive side. I paid lots for it and I had to sell it off if I wanted to continue my hobby.
    I am a woman and Beatrice's story stuck in my mind. I couldn't imaging being a young girl in the old west. Unfortunately I forgot her last name. A few years ago I tried to see if I could find any other info on her and her family. I believe she passed away just before the gunfight. The last few pages in the diary say she wasn't feeling well and I know she would have written about the gunfight if she was alive and well.
    I have gone through all the records I can find but I have no last name and can't find any evidence if a 13 yo Beatrice. If anyone out there has access to, or knows of any school or church records from Tombstone that may lead to a last name/her father's name, I would be very grateful if you could help me get more info. I am not into old documents anymore but this young girl's story stuck in my mind and I kinda picked it up again being stuck at home with the coronavirus thing. If possible, I would kind of like to learn her fate. There is no Obit for her, there is no Beatrice of the right age in the graveyards so I am not sure she died.
    Any info?
    Any ideas where else I may look?
    I am stuck without a last name.
    I can't imagine there was more than one 13 yo Beatrice in 1881 Tombstone. There has got to be a school roster, church records or something that could lead to more info.
    Take care everyone!!

There must be a few historians that specialize in the town of Tombstone. It might require you to take a vacation to Arizona, when possible. My sister lives in Tucson & she says Tombstone is only about 20 minutes East. Please let us know if you find out anything more, thanks.

    So I guess I'm distantly related to Wyatt Earp's wife. My last name (Blalack) and her last name (Blalock) are just corrupted versions of the same thing - Blacklocke. I've done a lot of ancestry research but basically just straight back through direct descendants and not their siblings - which I assume she was. On a side note, I'm supposedly fairly closely related to Willie Nelson too. I actually had like a great-great uncle of the same name, but _the_ Willie Nelson is a little further back. The story goes that, basically, I had a great-great grandpa with the surname Neilson whose last name was corrupted to Nelson when he moved to America from Sweden and it's one of his many siblings that Willie Nelson is descended from. Not that anyone cares - just sharing a tangent.

    I think that the closest fresh salmon available in Tombstone, Arizona, in the late 19th century would have come from Monterey, California. Maybe oysters came from the Sea of Cortez in Mexico. So how did fresh seafood reach Tombstone in an edible condition when Wyatt Earp lived and worked there?

    • @johnbowen2956

But the se article says that a U.S. patent for commercial dry ice was not issued until 1924. Was dry ice commercially availability in the U.S. during the last two decades of the 19th century?

      Not only were there chemical refrigeration systems in use since the 1860s or earlier, ice was also harvested, shipped, stocked and stored across most of the US to prosperous enough towns to have it. You could get a cold beer in Tombstone and drink it with seafood shipped on ice or in packer cars. The rail system greatly expedited shipping to any areas it pass through or adjoined. You could have something expedited from NYC to the southwest in a matter of days.

No wonder organic food is costly, because it’s made slow and all natural. I also ate some organic buffalo. It has a great taste.So I bet ice cream was awesome back then.

      I think they made it with ice and salt and would get ice from an ice house. That's how original ice cream machines worked. Cream, sugar and fruit (or whatever flavor you wanted) go in a bucket that sits inside another bucket that's full of ice and salt and there's a hand crank to keep it moving. As far as storing it, Idk if they could. I know they couldn't at first. They would've had to make the ice cream to order.

    My Grandfather, my Dad's Dad, was born in 1870 and passed years before I was born. My Dad was 38 years old when I was born and Grampa was 53 when my Dad was born. Grandma was about 20 years younger, I remember trying to play an old pump organ she owned. I would have loved to have talked to him. My Mother's parents born 1893 and 1899. Maybe soon I will start a CZcams channel and share more. God bless you all.

    Is it true Wyatt Earp earned his reputation by, when hearing there were 'baddies' in town,and he would sneak up behind them and shoot them in the back? I was told this by an Australian actor who worked in movies in the US.
