GIRLS OF THE GULCH
Calamity Jane was part of the overhead. No woman in the annals of Western gold camp history so captured the imagination as Martha “Calamity Jane” Cannary. Following prospectors from one gold camp to another, most wayward women of the old west shrouded their shady occupations with phony names and fantasy pasts. Not the flamboyant Calamity Jane. She gloried in the notoriety that pursued her as she wandered in and out of settlements from Montana to Kansas. Dime novels created a fictional heroine with scant resemblance to the woman who wore masculine attire, worked, drank and swore like a man, frequented saloons and sporadically worked as a teamster or bullwhacker, laundress or a cook. Unfortunately, dime novel tales were often confused with fact and grew larger in the telling. Nearly a century after her death, the notorious Calamity is still a subject of controversial stories about her life on the Western frontier. So much misinformation circulated during her lifetime, and since her 1903 demise, serious researchers have problems sifting fact from fiction. Even what seems to be tangible evidence, a ghostwritten autobiography, is filled with tales that don’t fit known facts. No one was better at spinning a good yarn than the imaginative Calamity herself. She had no high regard for truth, particularly when she was “tight as a goat” and cadging drinks in frontier saloons.

MARTHA JANE "CALAMITY JANE" CANNARY
During her life Calamity Jane lived fast and hard. She dressed like a man, she cursed like a man, and she drank like a man. She did many things that women of her day could only dream of, such as scouting for the Army, riding for the Pony Express, drinking and gambling with men all over the West. She was a woman who held her own among the roughest characters of the Wild West.

From Calamity Jane
Preface
Calamity Jane was called, variously, Marthy Cannary or Martha Jane Cannary or Martha Canary, depending on which writer deciphered this slender volume. Ghostwritten for her at the time of her appearance at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York, it presents her own reminiscences. Born, according to her account, in Missouri in 1852, she was certainly in the West by the 1870s, by which time she was presumably in her twenties. While much of her 'autobiography' appears to be invention, she did drive trains of oxen, hauling freight between the mining camps of the Dakota Territory. She did meet, shortly before his murder, Wild Bill Hickok in Deadwood. While some have said there was a marriage, and even a child, between she and Hickok, there is no credible evidence they were ever lovers. That she was "considered a remarkable good shot and a fearless rider for a girl of my age" at thirteen, when she and her family emigrated "by the overland route to Virginia City", is certainly possible. Traveling overland from Missouri to Montana at the end of the Civil War would have certainly called for those skills from anyone who possessed them. Her claim that she was a uniformed scout for George Armstrong Custer in 1870, when she would have barely been eighteen, and that she conveniently missed being at the Battle of the Little Big Horn by falling ill, thus meeting James Butler Hickok by accident and becoming his traveling companion, is less probable.

Calamity Jane
Calamity Jane's may have been second only to Buffalo Bill in exaggerating her early life exploits into something that only a dime store novelist would believe. Many of those exciting adventures came from Calamity herself, and most of them could not be corroborated by others. With this is mind, it is difficult to determine which stories should be retold as fact. "Calamity" was born in Princeton, Missouri, on May 1, 1852. Her maiden name was Martha Cannary. Her parents were natives of Ohio, and she had two younger brothers and three younger sisters. In 1865, the family immigrated from their homes in Missouri by the overland route to Virginia City, Montana, taking five months to make the journey. During the trip, "Calamity" spent most of her time hunting with the men and hunters of the party. By the time the party reached Virginia City, "Calamity" was considered a remarkably good markswoman and a fearless rider for a girl of her age (and most men her age). "Calamity's" mother died at Black Foot, Montana, in 1866 and the family left the territory soon after, heading for Utah. Her father died in 1867, and the surviving children moved to Wyoming. "Calamity's" role in taking care of the family became vital, and she took whatever job was available in order to provide food and shelter to her brothers and sisters. Most of the jobs entailed long hours and hard tasks that many men were not able to do.

Martha Jane Cannary
Life And Adventures Of Calamity Jane
By Herself

My maiden name was Marthy Cannary. I was born in Princeton, Missouri, May 1st, 1852. Father and mother were natives of Ohio. I had two brothers and three sisters, I being the oldest of the children. As a child I always had a fondness for adventure and out-door exercise and especial fondness for horses which I began to ride at an early age and continued to do so until I became an expert rider being able to ride the most vicious and stubborn of horses, in fact the greater portion of my life in early times was spent in this manner.
Mother died at Black Foot, Montana, 1866, where we buried her. I left Montana in Spring of 1866, for Utah, arriving at Salt Lake city during the summer. Remained in Utah until 1867, where my father died, then went to Fort Bridger, Wyoming Territory, where we arrived May 1, 1868, then went to Piedmont, Wyoming, with U. P. Railway. Joined General Custer as a scout at Fort Russell, Wyoming, in 1870, and started for Arizona for the Indian Campaign. Up to this time I had always worn the costume of my sex. When I joined Custer I donned the uniform of a soldier. It was a bit awkward at first but I soon got to be perfectly at home in men's clothes.
Was in Arizona up to the winter of 1871 and during that time I had a great many adventures with the Indians, for as a scout I had a great many dangerous missions to perform and while I was in many close places always succeeded in getting away safely for by this time I was considered the most reckless and daring rider and one of the best shots in the western country.
