    Holy Moly She was twelve years of age and had five younger siblings to bring up?
    My grandmother was 16yrs old when her mother died and now That Is a story.
    Certainly Not as wild as this but STRONG women.
    Bless them.
    Let's raise a glass to Jane.
    She had a huge heart.

      she was known to post help wanted adds in newspapers and lure young ladies as young as 13 to deadwood. Then refuse to pay their way back home when they learned the only job was as prostitutes. If they refused she would throw them out on the streets with nothing. It is well known that her and Colorado Charlie" Utter trapped many in prostitution this way. She was not a good person.

      The West wasn't all gun fights, horse thieving, and desperados riding the lonesome trail hunting rogue Indian Chiefs and robbing Stagecoaches.
      That is a romantic and obtuse idea colored by Cinema and tall tales.
      There were plenty of decent, hard working folks living a quiet life in what we consider the Old West. Way more than there were lawless, reckless Billy The Kid types.

      Nah, there's not a doubt in my mind that Calamity Jane could totally ignite your bedsheets and make your ceiling fan sweat. Brassy broad could probably bite into a horseshoe and spit out nails you could set railroad ties with.
      There's also a sneaking suspicion I have that, while she may have had several periods of being a self-employed "Professional Lady," the truth could very well be that whatever fees she collected were some of the first and most reasonable health insurance plans -one low monthly payment can keep both legs and arms from "Experiencing a Sudden Calamitous Onset" a local affliction which included such symptoms as: having all the joints of your body bent in the opposite directions, concussion, confusion, and a marked interest in reassuring concerned parties that they "got confused and hurt themselves -oh, but thank goodness Calamity was there to help. It's... Terrifying, what may have happened to a silly, clumsy, easily crushed little creature like myself who talks too muh.. -OW! Sorry about that, Miss Jane, I accidentally cracked my rib cage against your elbow, there."
      Yeah, if that's not the historically-supported canon Calamity? Then I would suggest that you mind your own business and maybe just enjoy your "Not Haunted By The Seething Ghost Of Calamity Jane" life in whatever happy-go-lucky fantas... [ -OW! OW! Not so HARD, dangit... ]
      I'm just going to shut up now. I think I've contracted an acute form of Sudden Calamitous Onset in the region where I used to have floating ribs. Wait, when and why did I put a handful of pennies in my mouuut-... Oh.

    It great to hear facts about her life versus the legend. But it appears she liked to embellish her life at times in the first place.🤔 Thank you for another wonderful video since they're always a treat.😁

    really informative. That part about Buffalo.. it might explain a lot about The city's challenges with Luck. not to be off topic but it Makes sense to me, as for decades we all Thought the Curse on Buffalo was about Native Rights and how the Locals had done them in and to Possess all the Gull to Use 'Bills', knowing its the Food base of the Many Nations and them Buffalo soldiers Killed like Costner in that movie and really did in so many Natives, just by starving them in But NOw. here is .. Got kicked out of town by the whole town and sure many a time Buffalo has kicked many a CDN out of town, or another local.. but i've been to them Bars.. and knowing watt light bulb now about how loses by the 4 times in the last Game of the season, the music city miracle and the Sabres with that skate in the BLUE and the goal still counted. no Luck.. and they had Video, like the JFK shooting.,, so there has Gandhi Be some sort of substance.. and here u come along with this 'incredible story', that i must admit is quite in depth and i have seen more than a few about her including one produced by FOX.. u knew they cared.? Great video,,.. Boom, drop the mic and Left to the Right./ Thanks and God Bless.
