Notes: Western Frontier Library Volume 32. O.C. Fisher was a second cousin to John “King” Fisher (1853-1884). Dykes was a noted western historian, environmentalist, and bibliographer. King Fisher was an outlaw turned lawman who owned a goodly portion of Dimmit County, Texas, during the 1870’s. I would call this a family genealogy, with a rancher/gunfighter/lawman/empire builder at its center.
