According to Ripley's Believe It Or Not, a desperado named Rip Rowser Bill came into Oklahoma City in 1899 and announced that he was going to start a new graveyard. He was caught and hanged as a rustler, and they made his own grave the 1st in the new cemetery.

"If you want to call me that, smile!" Gary Cooper, The Virginian (1929)

Real estate has sure changed. Before World War 2, only farmers and ranchers needed to get a mortgage on their home (to buy provisions, a neighbor's land, or new stock), and they paid it off as soon as they could. With all the foreclosures, short sales and mortgage modifications, I'd rather be in the Old West!
