http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/ These pictures are from the summer of 2002.

Boot Hill was the final resting place for many early westerners who helped make Ogalalla a booming cowtown in the 1870's and 1880's. Although one of the first burials here was a mother and child, many came by running afoul of the law -- some for stealing another man's horse. Others were killed by re-fighting the Civil War or for questioning the gambler's winning hand. Most were buried with their boots on, thus the name Boot Hill. Their bodies, placed in canvas sacks, were lowered into shallow graves and marked with a wooden headboard. Some of the bodies have since been removed -- only the unknown or the unclaimed remain in this western cemetery.]]> en-us sorabji.com Gallery 2 RSS Module, version 1.1.7 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 09:17:01 -0500 360 http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/d/110626-5/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska.jpg http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/ http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8553.JPG.html http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8553.JPG.html ]]> mark thomas photo Thu, 02 Apr 2009 12:14:30 -0400 http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8552.JPG.html http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8552.JPG.html ]]> mark thomas photo Thu, 02 Apr 2009 12:14:23 -0400 http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8551.JPG.html http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8551.JPG.html ]]> mark thomas photo Thu, 02 Apr 2009 12:14:13 -0400 http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8548.JPG.html http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8548.JPG.html ]]> mark thomas photo Thu, 02 Apr 2009 12:14:07 -0400 http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8547.JPG.html http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8547.JPG.html ]]> mark thomas photo Thu, 02 Apr 2009 12:13:55 -0400 http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8546.JPG.html http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8546.JPG.html ]]> mark thomas photo Thu, 02 Apr 2009 12:13:42 -0400 http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8545.JPG.html http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8545.JPG.html ]]> mark thomas photo Thu, 02 Apr 2009 12:13:29 -0400 http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8543.JPG.html http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8543.JPG.html ]]> mark thomas photo Thu, 02 Apr 2009 12:13:17 -0400 http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8542.JPG.html http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8542.JPG.html ]]> mark thomas photo Thu, 02 Apr 2009 12:13:05 -0400 http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8541.JPG.html http://www.sorabji.com/pictures/cemeteries/Boot_Hill_Ogallala_Nebraska/DSCN8541.JPG.html ]]> mark thomas photo Thu, 02 Apr 2009 12:12:53 -0400
