Wyatt Earp and his brother. They both fought the 1881 fight at the OK Corral in Tombstone not Dodge. In Dodge City he made friends with Doc Holliday.

Before he died he admitted that many of his stories were just that stories and never happened, but he is firmly set in our minds as the flawed antihero and gunslinger that is promoted in the American gun culture.
