Overview

Everyone knows the legend of the shootout at the OK Corral where the Earp clan, along with Doc Holiday, defeated the Clantons. This legend has been told in films, books, and even a TV show, but what happened after the OK Corral in the lives the Earps is an unwritten bit of local history.

The Earps kept the peace in Tombstone for only two years, then they spent the rest of their lives largely in San Bernardino County. In our area of the world Virgil Earp ran a Whist club in the mining town of Vanderbilt. He also did assaying work, some say that he applied that trade at Calico for a while. The Earp Clan: The Southern California Years focuses on the family's years in and around San Bernardino County after the brothers' time in Tombstone.
