The Prescott/Tombstone Connection Project is made up of people dedicated to educating the public about these connections, and celebrating them as well. Along with Prescott’s Doc HolliDaze and the book series, many other plans are being made. So stay tuned, and become a participant in this movement...

Here is an interesting Prescott/Tombstone connection. In November 1878, Virgil Earp (Ron Williams's predecessor) was elected Constable, and Dr. George Goodfellow as Coroner and Public Administrator. A little more than three years later, it was Goodfellow who attended to Virgil after he was shot on the streets of Tombstone, probably saving his life. The Prescott/Tombstone connection is strong.

This boy, now 70 years young, who grew up on a farm in southwest Michigan found himself in one of those irresistible moments when one stops and asks in wonder, "Isn't life full of surprises? How did I get here?!" Sitting in our house (well, garage that Wendi Courtney made into a sitting room) in Tombstone, Arizona, on the corner lot where the Southern Pacific railroad once turned north and west, writing a book called Doc Holliday in Prescott with his two canine family members Nico and Maverick at his side at 11 in the evening, smoking an Espinosa Crema cigar . . . . Yeah, just as he imagined it. Life is good! Life is a journey! Helldorado Days is just around the corner. We will see some of you soon. Things are about to get crazy, so back to work for now. He just wasted 20 minutes, the deadline is coming up too fast, and his cigar needs relit. 🙂

Thank you to Matt Bernstein and the Wild West History Association Journal for the nice write-up on Prescott's Doc HolliDaze in the September 2026 edition! We are very happy about this partnership! Also therein is a fabulous article about politics within the Holliday family of Georgia by our 2026 speaker Ana Sitnina. This discovery catches us all by surprise. Marvelous work Ana! Please consider joining the Wild West History Association. The journal alone is worth the price of admission!
