In the 1870s,  thousands of people poured into the mining town of Deadwood Gulch in the Black Hills of South Dakota.
Some of those people are still famous today.   
"Calamity Jane" - known throughout the world as the gun-slinging, bar and brothel owner . 
Wyatt Earp -  the most dangerous of all the gun-slinging US Marshals.
Wild Bill Hickok, a man whose biographers claimed  killed only six people in gunfights.
And there was another person... 
A man whose identity was a mystery until current-day investigators got to work... 
Their trail involved forensic dentistry, genealogy, and, good, old-fashioned detective work to trace the identity of an unknown man dead for over one-hundred-and-twenty years.
