I would say you need to look through old newspapers or the records at the courthouse. I don't live in Iron county (Lodi, CA is my hometown) so don't know what all is available in the way of newspapers, etc... but am positive one of the list members will know.

Harris, Sheriff of Iron Co. & "the Bushy boys" Marge, I hate to bother you but you have been very helpful in the past. I sent the following to the Iron Co. web site postings: Someone was kind enough to send me an e-mail in response to my inquiry about my great uncle John W. Harris being Sheriff of Iron Co. Here is part of the response: "John Harris was Sheriff of Iron County during the middle 30's. He was a much respected sheriff by all but the criminals. There were some pretty rough characters in Iron County then. Among them were the Bushy boys who were a wild bunch having murdered more than one. I believe John rounded them up and they served many years in the pen. " I am trying to find out more about the "Bushy boys" and what incidents that my great uncle was involved with that pertained to these men. Do you know how I could find out more about this incident(s) that my great uncle was involved in? thanks James Turner Harris [email protected]
