Wyatt Earp Birthplace

Wyatt Berry Stapp Earp, 1848-1929, a legendary Deputy United States Marshal, was one of Monmouth's most famous sons. Born March 19, 1848, Earp lived in Monmouth during his early childhood before moving on to such places as Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Arizona, Colorado, California, Alaska, and Idaho.

His birthplace home has been restored and is furnished with late 1800s period furniture and memorabilia. In addition to being able to tour his birthplace, a Wyatt Earp Birthday Celebration is held annually on the first Saturday in August.
