The Texas Jack Association is a non-profit organization that commemorates John B. “Texas Jack” Omohundro, cowboy, prairie scout, western hunting guide, Wild West showman, and partner and friend of W. F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody and James B. “Wild Bill” Hickok. In his day, Texas Jack was a nationally known figure, however he is largely unknown today because he died at the young age of 33. The Texas Jack Association exists to rectify this situation, perpetuate the memory of the “forgotten scout,” and see that he gets his deserved place in history. Texas Jack was one of the first actors in a “Western” drama, and in his day was as famous as his friends Buffalo Bill Cody and Wild Bill Hickok.
