Was Wyatt Earp Jewish?
According to an article by Larry Tritton on the website jewishjournal.com (Looking For a Legend), Wyatt Earp was NOT Jewish. He is buried in a Jewish cemetery because his wife was Jewish and Wyatt had expressed a wish to be buried next to his wife. He died before his wife did, and she had him buried in a Jewish cemetery, presumably because that is where she intended to be buried. All the articles on the internet indicate that Wyatt is buried in a Jewish cemetery, but none of them state that he was Jewish, or that he converted to Judaism.
