In 1877, the City of Tombstone was founded by Ed Schieffelin. At the time, there was a scouting voyage in Tombstone against the Chiricahua (chir-a-cow-uh)   

Deep in the southeastern corner of Arizona is a historic place known as the home of the famous Wild West silver boom, whiskey-fueled gun fights, and the most famous saloons. This epic southwest landmark known as “The Town Too Tough to Die” is Tombstone. You might think you know everything about this Arizona gem from books and movies. However, nothing compares to seeing this old western town in person. The most famous event in Tombstone’s history was the famed Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, a Tombstone Arizona fact. But did you know that it didn’t happen at the corral? In fact, it happened in a vacant lot on Fremont Street. 

On October 26, 1881, members of the “Cowboys” had a run-in with Wyatt, Virgil, and Morgan Earp with help from Wyatt’s friend Doc Holliday. Twenty-four seconds and 30 shots later, Billy Clanton, Tom, and Frank McLaury were mortally wounded. In many people’s opinion, this one event has kept Tombstone alive for all these years.
