Jemmey Fletcher was born in a dirt floor Missouri homestead in 1821, at a time when America was set to expand into her new western lands.
Growing up, Jemmey plowed the soil, did the chores, and split wood like any lad would have done.
In his heart though, Jemmey never was cut out for the farmer life.
As the American frontier expanded west, Jemmey knew he would have to live on the very edge, experiencing a rough and tumble life as he hammered out a living from the land.
Little did he know the adventures that lay ahead.
