Sheriff Robert Franklin McBride

While researching my McBride ancestorial line in Graham County, Arizona, I came across this YouTube video done by Miss Katty’s Wild West Adventures: The Powers Family Shootout: A True Tale of Courage and Controversy.

My great-grandmother Lydia June Angel married into the McBride family, so it naturally caught my attention. She first married Rolla McBride, and then, after his death, she married Andrew J McBride the son of James Andrew McBride. James Andrew McBride was the brother of Rolla McBride.

I’m not exactly sure of the connection between Rolla McBride, James Andrew McBride, and Sheriff Robert Franklin McBride but I suspect there is one somewhere. Determining the relationship is a project for another day.
