Sam was stationed in Hartshorne, I.T., Choctaw Nation in the late 1880s.Too many legends without support as to his history. He is a great uncle. I am looking for any history as well as his burial place. |

HAVE LEARNED MUCH OF SAM WINGO SPLLED BOTH SAMUAL AND SAMUEL. SAM WAS A US DEPUTY OUT OF PARKERS COURT. HE AND HIS BROTHER ED OF WILBURTON WERE GOOD AND ACTIVE OFFICERS. SAM APPARENTLY WENT BAD FOR SOME REASON AND HAVE TRACED HIM VIS NEWS ACCOUNTS TO DEMMING NEW MEXICO WHERE HE WAS LAST HEARD OF ABOUT 1888, HE WAS RIDING WITH THE DALTON GANG AND ROBBING WITH THEM , OR LOL, WORKING UNDERCOVER. MUCH OF FAMILY LEGEND HAS BEEN VERIFIED, SAM KILLED SOMEONE THE WRONG WAY, WAS ARRESTED, KILLED OR OVERCAME HIS ARRESTOR AND ESCAPED....LATTER PART OF LEGEND IS THAT HE WENT TO HAWAII AN BECAME A "CHIEF OF POLICE" THERE AND HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET HIM THERE, OR EVEN OUT OF A DEMMING NEW MEXICO SHOOT OUT. NO DOUBT THOUGH HE RODE WITH THE DALTONS BUT DISAPPEARS EVEN WITH THEIR CONTINUING CRIMINAL EPISODES, MAYBE HE DID WIND UP SOMEWHERE ELSE...ARCHIVES SHOW THE 3 WINGO'S SAM, EDWIN AND WILLIAM AS US DEPUTIES OUT OF FORT SMITH IN THE 1880'S..SHOULD BE WONDERFUL AND INTERESTING STORY IF IT CAN BE PUT TOGETHER.ANYONE HEARING OF ANY OF THEM PLEASE SO ADVISE. http://OFFICIALCOLDCASEINVESTIGATIONS.COM OFFICIALCOLDCASEINVESTIGATIONS.OM |
