Jeff Davis Milton
Two of the Southwest's famous lawmen of the 1890s - 1900s. Jeff Davis Milton, Texas Ranger, El Paso Police Chief, Wells Fargo guard, Customs Officer, Deputy Sheriff and Deputy US Marshal, and George Scarborough, Deputy US Marshal. Both were involved in the Martin M'Rose killing in El Paso, an incident that certainly tainted Scarborough's law enforcement career. Scarborough also killed John Selman and was himself mortally wounded in a gunbattle in 1900. Milton however lived a long life and died in 1947.
