It was probably around Hagerman, New Mexico, somewhere between Artesia and Roswell. Linda also writes that Jack had a very colorful life "My dad said they called him Dakota Red?he walked with a lift on one foot because he had been shot with a tommy gun during a bank robbery he spent several years in prison off and on?in later years the drink really got to him. My dad always said he liked to drink but that he had a son that died in a school fire in Texas and after that he drank more. I remember him as a very kind man?he came to visit when I was young? I remember going to see him in a trailor when he was with a woman named Babe she was in my young eyes very pretty."
