I believe when growing up his family was Protestant but Wayne married three times, all were Catholic, two relapsed Catholic. His children were more or less raised in the Catholic faith and shortly before his death he converted to Catholosism, I think mostly to please his older children.
Why did john Wayne prefer latin women?
I happen to Like EM too, especially the Pioneer Latin Land- Fair Italy. To Gina, we set up our sights! There were a number of Senoritas in the West, so there is no historical problem ( unlike a cowpoke with a .45-l9ll automatic) in having Mexican or other latin girls in a Western setting. There were also a lot of Italians in Frisco, and that is a Western site, too.

Donovan's Reef.
I don't think he left her any money. When they separated in the '70's all support and financial situations were worked out then. People think he left her nothing but that's not true. She was already taken care by the legal separation agreement.

What kind of gun did John Wayne use in the movie The Sons of Katie Elder?
John Wayne used the same gun in several movies - a Winchester Model 94, chambered for a 32-40 round.
The John Wayne Commemorative Rifle (I have one still new in the box I got 24 years ago) has engraved on the receiver all of the movies he used that particular rifle in. It differs from the standard Winchester in that the lever has a larger loop, making it stand out. Any John Wayne fan can spot the difference - in some movies, he'll even swap a regular Winchester for that one.
Some of the movies he used it in are:
The Sons of Katie Elder
Hondo
The Searchers
Stagecoach
The Man who shot Liberty Valance
El Dorado
She Wore a Yellow Ribbon
The War Wagon
Red River
The Cowboys
McClintock! (my wife's favorite)
Rio Bravo
True Grit
Chisum
How the West was Won
Rio Grande
