Mapping History: The Complete Tour of Lincoln New Mexico
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 06. 2024
- Join us as we visit every historic building in Lincoln, New Mexico, and explore the history of the Wild West in America's best-preserved frontier town. The story of Lincoln is forever linked with legendary figures including William Bonney (alias Billy the Kid), Pat Garrett, John Chisum, John Tunstall, and many more characters associated with the bloody Lincoln County War-but the story of Lincoln started long before this bloody feud and is still being written today. Learn about the earliest Hispanic pioneers in the region who settled in the Southwest; the Anglo-American cowboys who moved into the area after the Civil War; and the men and women who worked to build a community in a remote part of the new United States. A walk through Lincoln takes you back in time to a period when the Territory of New Mexico was as wild as any town in the West; when the line between outlaw and lawman was blurred; and when more disputes were settled with bullets than with ballots.
So come along with us for a walk down what President Rutherford B. Hayes called, “The Most Dangerous Street in America,” and explore Old Lincoln and many of the buildings and sites where history happened.
If you like this video, check out our website at www.badhossmaps.com/ where you can purchase a complete, printed wall map of Lincoln showing all of its historic buildings, murder sites, old west shootouts and more. It is by far the most complete and accurate map of Historic Lincoln that has ever been produced.

I've been to Lincoln probably 12 times at least and NEVER knew half the stuff in this video. Thank You for the tour and I hope to visit Lincoln at least 12 more times. Well Done !!
Glad you enjoyed it! Believe it or not, we have much more to share. Stay tuned!
Thanks! Lincoln has a massive story and a lot more to tell!
I've been there too and I didn't know half of this stuff and I really studied it for quite a while. Excellent presentation.
I am very grateful to see these. Thank you for bringing them to CZcams, I appreciate what you're doing. Tim Roberts is wonderful. 👍
This vid should have way more likes. Tim is top-notch.
Fantastic video thank you. I'm lucky enough now to be going to Texas and New mexico in 4-5 months, driving around seeing all this historical stuff. I've been wanting to go here since i was a kid, a good 40 years ago, I can't wait! thanks again.
I give this video an A+. This guy narrated the history so clear with no mistakes. I highly recommend this video to all who are interested in Lincoln, NM history.
Thank you for the kind words!
Thank you for the tour, I love this town! Very well done information on the homes and buildings in Lincoln, I didn't know there was so many historical places besides the court house!💕
We're very glad you enjoyed this. We have more planned, we're just waiting 'til it warms up and greens up a little bit!
A much needed complete tour! Many little known facts now interwoven into the larger story!
Thank you!
Bet it's a spooky place at night.
You'd think so, but it's really not. Locals and visitors usually describe it as peaceful -- a stark contrast to its violent beginnings.
Taking all you said are fact-checked , I've never seen a better and more complete video about any topic in CZcams ever.
Thank you! If you liked this, you're going to love what we're working on now!
@@badhossmaps tuned 👍🏼
Really well done. I'm going on a road trip through Az and NM, will have to go there. Thanks
Good job. I grew up and deer hunted in that area. My family is from Capitan.
Thank you very much I amego!!, I love the history of Billy the kid
You might be the best presenter of History I've ever heard in my life. Excellent job on this video and also the presentations you do in town, there.
Thank you! We have new ones coming soon so stay tuned. :)
@@badhossmaps I really enjoy your videos. Can you make a video on the Alma Massacre near Silver City, NM ?
Great video I’ve always wanted to hear the history of the whole town, I bet there is so much more to learn. I’d like to see the location of where Billy and the regulators fought at Blazers Mill
Stay tuned!
What a great history lesson thank you for sharing.
Shared knowledge greatly appreciated. Well done!
Great video, Thanks.
Such an informative and well presented documentary. Thank You.
Awesome video been wanting to visit this place love all its history
Very nice Bad Hoss. Exceptional history vid
Thank you for all this great information.
Our pleasure!
Thank you for this informative video. I was able to visit the town in the late 80's. Thanks for the additional history I didn’t know.
Superb presentation. 👍
I was at Lincoln and FT Stanton in April (2023). I need to go back and explore again. Good thing I live two hours north.
Fantastic!!
This is fantastic
Another very interesting video!
I am sure you have heard the audio recording of the girl who witnessed the killing of Sheriff Brady? Great video! I learned a lot!
Great video, thanks for the tour. This goes hand-in-hand with the greatest book ever written about those times "The Lincoln Country War" by Frederick M. Nolan.
I’m hoping to go this spring or summer, my grandma was born in Las Vegas New Mexico, there’s so much I want to see and do….
I friggin love this channel
Thank you!
Nicely done. Thank you. P. S. Clear voice and presentation
great job
This is great.
been patiently waiting for this one.
We tried to strike a balance between touching on everything, while not making this three hours long! Lincoln has so much more history than most people normally talk about. Hope you liked it!
Excellent work, very good information and presentation.
I visited Lincoln once, am a cowboy/history fan and loved the research done for this solid video.
Thank you very much!
One of the best or the best documentary about Lincoln that I have ever seen
Thank you!
Very interesting
Wonderful history lesson. I’m new to the state and haven’t had the opportunity to explore nearly enough…
Going to have my wife watch this as well…
Subscribed…
How about some episodes on the Las Cruces area.
We're working on a few more for the Lincoln area now -- there's a lot to get through. But if you have any ideas/suggestions in your area we're always keen to hear about it! Thanks for subscribing.
Really enjoyed that...thank you 🏴
Glad you enjoyed it!
Later this year Iam going to Dallas...for 4 or 5 weeks...so you have inspired me to come and see Lincoln...could you suggest some places worth the visit either on the way or when I arrive...cheers
Wow! What a great video. I'm heading to Lincoln for the first time soon and I'll use this video as my tour guide. Thank you for doing this!
P.S. I predict when Young Guns 3 comes out this channel will blow up. Keep it up.
Thanks Brad! We're glad you like it (and we hope it blows up too!) Swing by the Bonito Valley Brewing Co. when you're in Lincoln and see what else we have going on.
Great video I never knew tunstall and mcsween can't be found. I always thought they buried them where the crosses are.
Top video knows his stuff well done
Great video incredible detail. Thanks for this. Hope to go there someday. Just subscribed. Hope your channel grows, deservingly so
Thank you! Stop by our shop when you get to Lincoln. We just opened a bookstore and map gallery and have lots more in the works.
@@badhossmaps do you happen to sell anything online?
@@badhossmaps never mind I see you put a link in description!
I'm from New Mexico and I don't know a damn thing about it. Thank you!
Such a beautiful colourful peaceful place. Could all those events be over a few cattle eating grass?
Well done.
Great video !! Thank you. Do the Northfield bank raid sometime !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That one's on the short list!
Forgot to give credit for the amazing video.. fantastic work sir!
Thank you!
My great grandfather was on the trial of billy the kid in mesilla new mexico for shooting jw bell and ollinger I have proof from a new mexico history book
Did he share his thoughts about Billy? Was your Great Grandpa a member of the jury?
@Lithuanian Giant yes he was a member of the jury. I didn't get to meet him mind you I'm 30 my parents are 73 they had me when they were 44 l all of my cousins are older or past away
Um billy never went to trial for bell or olinger. He escaped from jail & was killed shortly after if you study history correctly
Ive only been there once and this video shows how much I missed :( . This will be rectified however with Billy Palooza next sept.
I'll probably make a solo quick trip between now and then also
I'm from here. Pretty cool.
Please send me some information about The Curry Saloon. I visited Lincoln several times when I was young, and I remember having the best cherry cider inside a saloon in Lincoln. The Saloon also had many very old games you could play. Do you know anything about this place? I remember the saloon was across the street from the courthouse. Thank you.
The old Curry Saloon is privately owned and hasn't been open as a business in a very long time. The building is still there, it's just not open to visitors.
do a video about brushy bill Robert's
I’d like to more on where Billy the kid went and where he was killed
I wonder if there are any restaurants and what Billy the Kid ate.
Married my second wife in Lincoln... Spent the our 1st night there. . . Spent a lot of time there when we lived in Roswell
need some ground radar so they can try and locate the graves
Tunstalls grave is way down the from where the crosses are
Was it not Fernando Herrera
Why did Billy the Kid originally move to Lincoln New Mexico anyway? I knew he originally moved to Silver City with his mom. But I'm not sure what caused him to go to Lincoln.
After his mother died in Silver City, he started getting in trouble so he ran off to Arizona. There he ended up killing Frank Cahill in a bar fight, fell in with a gang, and followed them to Lincoln. The rest is history!
Wheres the vet with the vet dog who normally does this tour
That would be absolutely terrible being forced to hang not once but twice in the same hour.
It’s seems Bonney is portrayed as someone that wants to do good but keeps getting caught up in troubling situations. Would that be accurate or was he just on the wrong side of the law?
It was a highly complex situation, and historians and history buffs continue to debate that to this day!
I suppose it’s anyone’s guess then.
