Frank Wolcott
(1840-1910) - Born in Canandaigua, New York on December, 13, 1840,
Wolcott served in the Civil War, leaving as a Major in 1866. He then moved to Kentucky, before making his
way to Cheyenne, Wyoming in 1870. He worked for the U.S. Land Office until being appointed a U.S.
Deputy Marshal
for Wyoming. However, he didn't last
long in this role, as three years later he was released because of what
Governor John M. Thayer called "offensive" behavior. He then bought a
ranch in 1876 and became involved with the Wyoming Stock Growers Association
and a number of large cattle barons. When the conflict between the small
ranchers and the cattle barons erupted in the 1880's, Wolcott sided with the
large ranchers. Known as the Johnson County War, Wolcott led a group of 50
henchmen into Johnson County in April, 1892 with the intention of killing some
70 suspected cattle rustlers who had been placed on a "death list."
However, after killing Nick Ray and Nate Champion, Sheriff Red Angus,
leading a posse of 200 men, trapped the gunmen and besieged Wolcott's forces at
the TA Ranch until they were rescued by the 6th Cavalry three days later. Over
the next couple of years Wolcott continued in his efforts to destroy the small
ranch owners of the area. In 1894, he moved to Nebraska where he became general
agent at the Omaha Stockyards. He died in Denver March 30, 1910
Now
let me back up a bit, before we went to Gettysburg Steve (my husband) believed
in the spirit world but I don't think he believed quite as much as he does
now. My energy has always been wicked high and going into all of this I
was so certain that I was going to be the one getting the activity as I believed
in all of the spirit world & just so wanted to speak to family members that
have moved on. I have to say I was so happy that Steve was the one to get
this awesome experience and that we are just hooked on this. We
have always watched the ghost hunter shows and say that we would love to be on
an investigation team. We did become honorary members of the devil dog
paranormal research team and we are looking into becoming investigators as we
do enjoy it so much. When Steve & I got to Gettysburg the 1st time Steve
wanted to go into this shop and I was just going to wait outside as I didn't
feel the need to go into this small place. All of a sudden I felt the
need to go in and I am so glad that I did.
I
do love to do photography as a hobby and when we went to Gettysburg I
couldn't wait to start taking pictures of all the monuments and everything
around us. This year in Gettysburg it is going to be the 150th
anniversary from that terrible battle that took so many young lives. At
some points during our time there I actually felt such an overwhelming sense of
sadness and death it was hard to breathe. I have gotten so many pictures
of orbs and very colorful ones as well. I have also gotten partial
manifestations and places that it was completely clear there was fog but it
wasn't fog it was a manifestation happening before the camera.

I am not the type of person that would try to push anyone into doing something
that they don't believe in and I don't want to ever scare anyone either.
I just am wicked excited to share my experiences and I am just so fascinated
with the spirit world & I believe that there is so much out there for
people to find out about if they want to. I understand that there are
people out there that will try to debunk every picture that I have ever taken
but I am telling you these pictures haven't been touched at all. They are
the real deal.
I truly hope that you enjoy
reading about our experiences and that you will come back as there is even more
to go over. This was just a first blog. Thank you for reading. |
