Name: Cornelius Shine: Cowboy, Sharpshooter
Wealth: $10
Cornelius or Connie as his late wife Agatha used to call him was mere farmer back in the 1860's, an Irish man fleeing the famine in the early fifties he hadn't looked back until he was conscripted in the US Army and served in the Irish Brigade out of New York, he didn't stay long not being one to put his neck on the line for a country that had yet to feed him. Connie went West to the New Mexico where he had met the land owning Widow Agatha O'Connell a Yankee woman using her late husbands land as an Orphanage for young children. Connie didn't fall into marriage with Agatha straight away it was a more complicated affair that involved local suitors who wanted access to her land, Connie a thirty something vagrant who managed to convince Agatha to let him till her fields and maintain the land was unfortunately caught between a dispute with his employer and several ambitious and equally devious men. it was Connie who finally got to marry Agatha nipping the dispute in the bud albeit a few hairy arguments a few saloon Brawls. They never had children since they were too old and the added fact that they already had thirty mouths to feed!
after near two decades of a reasonably pleasant marriage the now Widower Cornelius Shine and his two sons, Charlie ( a china-man) and William (an Apache) are making their own way in the west, following the death of Agatha there's nothing left for Connie to stay around for, angry landowners jealous of the Irish man and the threat of his boys getting into trouble has forced Connie to sell the land back in the 70's. Since then he and his two sons have been scraping a living helping the sheriffs in new mexico by helping to protect the carriages on the wagon trails, "its a hard livin, buts its a good clean livin!"
