Guerrillas who survived Bill Anderson's admission.

While traditionalist historians and others want everyone to believe that only two or three Guerrillas were still alive after Colonel William C. "Bloody Bill" Anderson gave a series of interviews to Henry C. Fuller of the "Brownwood Banner-Bulletin" in 1924 and even after he died in 1927, our Bloody Bill Anderson Mystery group has proven that more than these twenty Guerrillas lived on and not a single one ever went public saying that William C. Anderson's 1924 admission to being Bloody Bill was not the truth.
