Morgan Earp
Born April 24th 1851

Morgan Earp served as a police officer much like his brothers. He may have even put in more hours policing Tombstone than his brother Wyatt. Morgan was given distinction for his bravery in an article of the Tombstone Epitaph "One thief resisted but gave up when a six-shooter was run under his nose by Morgan Earp" Morgan also rode shotgun for Wells Fargo. Morgan was a deputy to his brother Virgil when they faced off against the Mclaurys and Clantons. Many people think Morgan or Holliday were trigger happy and institgated the shooting. Morgan was wounded in the gunfight. Morgan was Murderd while having a game of pool with Bob Hatch. The assasins would also take a shot at Wyatt but they missed. Morgan clung to life for about an hour after he was shot. Wyatt would spend the next few months hunting down Mogans assasins. Morgan left behind his wife Louisa.
