Jack Longstreet House

Jack Longstreet House
Jack Longstreet was an outlaw and gunfighter who had his ears cropped for cattle rustling in Texas and thereafter left for Nevada and the Amargosa Valley arriving there in the 1870's. He later built this house near a spring in what is now Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge and lived there until he died. He never changed his ways, was involved in several killings and gunfights and was hated but feared by those who lived in the area. He claimed to be a brother of the Confederate general, James Longstreet, but there is no evidence to back that claim.
