If someone got bitten by a venomous snake, another pioneer would take a knife and cut an "x" at the bite location. They would then suck out the blood and hopefully the poison. Sometimes this worked and sometimes this didn't.
If it didn't work the victim would most likely die. If they happen to be lucky enough to survive, the body part that was bitten would normally have to be amputated. If they were bitten on their core, death was almost certain.
There was no treatment for rabies. If a person was bitten, they died.

No, antivenin is used to treat the bite of a rattlesnake.
Rattlesnake Bite was created in 1985.
A nonvenomous snake bite will usually heave two parallel rows of tiny puncture wounds from the teeth. A rattlesnake bite will usually have two larger puncture wounds from the fangs. See the image of a rattlesnake bite above.

The same as they are today.
The same as if you were bitten today.
A rattlesnake wouldn't be able to eat a human. Snakes can't bite parts off, so they are limited to eating things they can swallow whole. And a human, even a child, would simply be too big for a rattlesnake to swallow.
just like any other rattler.

The strike from a rattlesnake is faster than a boxer's punch and has been estimated at up to 60 miles per hour.

Most bites can be cured with antivenin treatment.
