Henry Plummer: From California To Montana
10:45 AM
Montana Historical Society (east of the Capitol)
Description:
Henry Plummer is most commonly known as the "Outlaw Sheriff of Bannack." Testimonials of vigilantes and pro-vigilantes regarding Plummer have been accepted as historical fact and undisputed for decades. Great Falls historian Cheryl Wagner-Malecha will present a different scenario of the events that occurred in Bannack during 1863 and 1864, including a possible political conspiracy that led to the sheriff's lynching. Wagner-Malecha will offer an intriguing twist to the fascinating story of Henry Plummer, providing attendees with the opportunity to rethink history by questioning who the criminal masterminds of Bannack really were.
