mckinley412, You are in luck. There is a nice assortment of photos of Jesse James, Billy the Kid, and Catherine McCarty collected from flea markets and garage sales at jessejamesphotoalbum.com/

Ugh. I thought that rifle one was the one people haven't seen very much. It's a different one that I have for wallpaper on my phone and I can't upload it. I'll try again next time

Has anyone looked at the side by side of Joseph Antrim and Brushy Bill that is posted on Cold West facebook ? Undeniable similarities in the smile ( the turned down mouth, the ears, etc. And according to Brushy they were cousins ? Give it a look, its very interesting.

I'm glad you brought that up because it's never really been discussed on the board. I agree there are some remarkable similarities. I'm not sure how important that is unless we could see a picture of young Joseph Antrim and see how much resemblance there is to Billy. I know cousins can have similar facial traits but so can two individuals who have no relation at all. Don't get me wrong. I do think they look enough like to at least suggest they "could be" cousins. But look at Henry Oliver Roberts, the father of the real Oliver Pleasant Roberts. He and Brushy share some facial traits as well. I guess the bottom line is, we need to know if Brushy looks like Billy The Kid because that is a requirement in order for his story to be true. I think he looked a great deal like Billy. More than anything else, that is what convinced me years ago that they were the same person.

It helps Brushy's case that Oliver's father was supposedly Brushy's uncle so they would look similar. Where is that pic of Henry Oliver? I've always noticed the similarity between Joe and Brushy.

This is Henry O. Roberts and wife Elizabeth, parents of the real Oliver Pleasant Roberts.

Thain,
"It helps Brushy's case that Oliver's father was supposedly Brushy's uncle so they would look similar. '
Since Henry Oliver Roberts was the father of Brushy Bill, it should come as no surprise that there is a noticeable resemblance between the two.

TTT, I look just almost as much as my dad's brother as I do my dad. I can you tell whose son is whose? Don't answer that. Or I could say 'that proves it! The guy who Brushy says is his uncle has similar features so that means Brushy couldn't have been that guy's nephew. CASECLoSED! ' I'm about to take a year off from this site. Feel free to pm me but there isn't much I can add for now.

Yeah. Good job. That's the one I always wanted to post off my phone but couldn't. It's my wallpaper. I forgot it came from a J. Frank Dalton book. I have those too.
