Texas Tuck   
 
I was born in El Paso, Texas, the first of 3 children to Franky and Betsy Tucker.  Grew up during the
Civil War wanting to serve in the military, but the war ended.  At a very young age I went to work
on a ranch as a ranch hand and later started rustling cattle.  Got bored rustling cattle, so I turned to
holding up stagecoaches and trains.  After serving time in jail, I turned gambler and shot a man during a
card game in Tombstone, Arizona.  The dirty scoundrel cheated me!  After several years of dirty deeds,
I settled in Colorado, accepting a position as Town Marshall in a small central mining town.  After serving
10 years as a member of the law, I retired to the mountains where I panned for gold and lived off the land.
