Welcome to the latest episode of Preserving History and Democracy!
In this fascinating installment, we’re joined by Dale Owens, a historian and former rancher, who shares his extensive knowledge of some of the county’s oldest ranches.
The episode begins with a personal introduction as Mr. Owens reflects on his own family history and their deep roots in the region. He then takes us on a journey through the mysterious killing of legendary lawman Pat Garrett, sharing riveting stories passed down through generations of his own relatives.
Next, Mr. Owens delves into the intriguing murder trial surrounding Garrett’s death, uncovering how those involved crafted deliberate falsehoods to evade justice. The conversation also shifts to the story of A.B. Fall and the mysterious disappearance of Albert Fountain, adding another layer of history.
Mr. Owens then paints a vivid picture of ranch life, recounting tales from families who lived near the mountains, and how these ranches were later repurposed as test sites for rocket development during the 1940s.
As the episode draws to a close, Mr. Owens reflects on how these once-thriving ranching families lost their land but preserved the invaluable stories and memories that continue to shape their legacy today.
Tune in for a compelling mix of history, family tales, and the untold stories of the American West.
