Try looking up Belle Starr. She was one of the few female outlaws of the ear and had a pretty interesting life. If you're looking for someone on the right side of the law look up Calamity Jane, she was pretty important figure too.

The famous guerilla Apache leader Geronimo had known since a boyhood vision that he'd never die from bullets. Yet in his old age he displayed countless pockmarked wounds on his chest. So how did the old warrior die?
Geronimo, the last of the Indian POWs of the Apache Wars, frequently traveled from Fort Sill, Oklahoma, to nearby Lawton. There, he'd purchase wood and material to fashion his bows and arrows that he would sell to tourists--thereby bringing in extra income for him and his two wives.
On one such excursion to Lawton, Geronimo tanked himself up on rotgut, or firewater, after buying his supplies. On the way back to Fort Sill he fell from his horse and lay on the prairie for three days until found by a search party from the military reservation.
He died of pneumonia and exposure and was buried on the Fort Sill Military Reservation in February 1909.
Just goes to show you that driving drunk on a horse is dangerous too.
Geronimo still lives with us in film and books, but more important with the U.S. Army Airborne. One Army unit has a shoulder patch saying "Geronimo!" and to this day Army planners use such Apache tactics that Geronimo had in their strategies of field maneuvers and deployment.
Although connected with Geronimo in their search for him, the Apache scouts hired by General Crook to bring in Geronimo instituted a unit crest that is in use today by the Army's Special Forces (Green Berets). The crest shows on a vivid background a pair of crossed arrows.
I trust this little tale is of interest to you and other readers.
Airborne!
