Great post Chivato. I believe I read somewhere that Minnie Shield was the niece of Susan McSween...I will see if I can find the reference.

Minnie Shield's mother was Elizabeth Shield. Elizabeth Shield was the married sister of Susan McSween according to "In the Shadow of Billy the Kid: Susan McSween and the Lincoln County War". If you search you will find a pdf version online that is 18 pages. A lot of interesting information in that 18 pages....

You are quite welcome Chivato. In fact, there is a picture of Minnie with Susan McSween in that book.

Here we have Dona Catalina Mondragon de Valdez. According to Ray John Aragon's book "Lincoln " she was a medecine woman who once treated Billy's wounds in Anton Chico and apparently Billy fathered one of her children.  |

I haven’t read Aragon’s book, is it a good book? Is one of the kids in the photo supposed to be Billy’s? I wonder what happened to that child? Interesting.

The child might be in the pic but the author does not point it out. But I have to say that some pictures in the book seems to be bogus, the one of Capt. Bacca I dont believe its him. It might be a bogus claim about the child but maybe not. Billy seemed to like women a whole lot, he had at least 3 girlfriends in Sumner not including Paulita. |
