Rangers Company B

Texas Rangers were first formed in 1823 to keep law and order
throughout Texas and the Southwest. In the 1870s the Rangers
were combating rampant lawlessness, fighting the raiding Comanche's,
struggling against Mexican border disputes and battling the
feuding cattlemen and desperados that were terrorizing the
State of Texas.

Texas
Rangers Company D - Frontier Battalion
Few
will argue that the most violent Texan from the Old West was
John Wesley Hardin. After
killing Sheriff Charley Webb in 1874 Wes Hardin was on the
run, until on August 23, 1877, Frontier Battalion Lieutenant,
John Armstrong, caught up with him in Pensacola, Florida.
Ranger Armstrong with drawn Colt boarded the train and entered
the car in which Wes Hardin and four companions were sitting.
Upon seeing the Ranger with his drawn six-shooter and big-brimmed
western hat, Hardin, is reported to have yelled, "Texas
by God!" which prompted the outlaws to go for their
pistols. When the smoke cleared, one of Hardin's companions
was dead, Wes was out cold from a blow to the head, and Armstrong
was staring down the other three with his smoking six gun.

Texas Rangers Company A Peso Badge
The
Texas Rangers were often called cruel - but they were formed
in cruel times and they had to police a cruel frontier. Often
incredibly outnumbered - companies of Rangers were victorious
against Comanche warriors, Mexican Armies, rustlers, horse
thieves, and assorted other bandits -- including Bonnie and
Clyde.
Legendary
Ranger Exploits
Captain Jack Hays and his company took on most
of the Mexican Army to break the trap holding General Winfield
Scott's Army in Central Mexico. The year was 1847 and Scott
had sent word to President Polk that it would take 50,000
troops to break the army free. But all he needed and all he
got was Captain Hays and about 40 Rangers.
This
early 20th century Ranger badge was actually pressed out of
a silver Peso from Mexico. Badge is stamped on both sides
- notice the Peso imprint on the back.

Special
Ranger
Texas and Southwest Cattle Raisers Association
On
February 15, 1877, in Graham, Texas, the Texas and Southwest
Cattle Raisers Association was formed. The original name was
the Stock-Raisers' Association of North-West Texas, and Cattlemen
in Oklahoma, New Mexico, and the Indian Territory were invited
to join. This badge came about when the Association decided
to take matters into their own hands and track down outlaws
and protect themselves and their herds from the rampant rustling
of the day.

San
Juan Colorado Rangers
The
San Juan Rangers were another little known part of the legend
of the old western frontier. Rangers were brave men who stood
out from the crowd. Some were appointed to office, others
volunteered or were deputized. Their role as lawmen was to
corral cattle rustlers, unruly gamblers and drunk cowboys
and keep the peace in the towns. The pay was minimal and the
hours were long, and often the reward was a bullet in the
back.

California
Ranger
On
May 11, 1853, California Governor
John Bigler signed a legislative act authorizing the organization
of a band of California Rangers under the command of Captain
Harry Love. Their purpose? To capture or kill the infamous
bandito Joaquin Murieta, ringleader of a gang of men believed
to be responsible for much of the cattle rustling, robberies,
and murders taking place in the Mother Lode region. In July
of 1853, the Rangers came across the group of bandits near
Arroyo Cantúa in San Benito County. After a confrontation,
two of the bandito's were killed by the Rangers. The Rangers
cut off the hand of one and the head of the other. The Rangers
claimed that the head belonged to the infamous Joaquin Murieta!
