As noted by researcher, Michelle Gibson, in the nineteenth century, following the American Civil War, stories and inexpensive Dime Novels depicting the American West and frontier life were becoming very popular.
In 1883, Buffalo Bill’s Wild West was founded in North Platte, Nebraska, when the former U.S. Army scout and bison hunter, William F (Buffalo Bill) Cody turned his real life adventure into the first outdoor western show.
William Frederick Cody (February 26, 1846 – January 10, 1917), better known as Buffalo Bill, was an American soldier, bison hunter, and showman.
All sorts of characters from the frontier were incorporated into the show’s program.
Shooting exhibitions were also in the line-up, with extensive shooting displays and many a trick shot.
Rodeo events, involving rough and dangerous activities performed by Cowboys with:
- Horses
- Buffalo
- Moose
- Elk
and even Bears, also featured, along with theatrical re-enactments of battle scenes, characteristic western scenes, and even hunts.
While some of the storylines and characters were based on true events, others were fictional or sensationalized.
None more so than the American Indians.
Hundreds of thousands were subject to years of genocide and slavery, and by the 1880’s, most American Indians had been confined to reservations, often in areas of the West that appeared least desirable to white settlers.
Buffalo Bill’s ‘Wild West’ toured Europe eight times, the first four tours between 1887 and 1892, and the last four from 1902 to 1906.
Performing in:
- France
- Austria
- Germany
- Belgium
- Italy
- Poland
- Hungary
- Romania
and the Ukraine, Buffalo Bill and his Wild West show had influenced the public’s perception of America, across an entire continent.

The first tour was in 1887 as part of the American Exhibition, which coincided with the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria.
Victoria (Alexandrina Victoria; 24 May 1819 – 22 January 1901) was Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland from 20 June 1837 until her death in 1901. Her reign of 63 years and 216 days, which was longer than those of any of her predecessors, constituted the Victorian era. It was a period of industrial, political, scientific, and military change within the United Kingdom, and was marked by a great expansion of the British Empire. In 1876, the British parliament voted to grant her the additional title of Empress of India.
After its extraordinary sell-out success in London, the tour made stops in Birmingham and Manchester before returning to the United States in May 1888, for a short summer tour.
A return tour was made in 1891-92, including Cardiff, Wales, and Glasgow, Scotland, in the itinerary.
Do you think the controllers of history managed to get the message across?
The cowboy became the symbol for the West of the late 19th century, often depicted in popular culture as a glamorous or heroic figure.
I think it fair to say that the majority of folk like myself, who were born in the mid-twentieth century, were subtly conditioned from the start, to accept a controlled historical narrative of the American Wild West.
A perceived new world, empty of infrastructure, apart from a plethora of wigwams and pine cabins, with plenty of land and gold for the taking, and huge potential for building brand new towns and cities.
Plus, the occasional skirmish with Apache Indians on horseback, and a bar brawl and gunfight or two along the way.
In other words, there was a time when pretty much everything I thought I knew about North America, was based upon fiction.
This was primarily due to the many long-running TV series such as the ‘Lone Ranger’ and ‘Cheyenne’, and the Wild West movies like ‘Shane’ and ‘True Grit’.
My boyhood belief had no real basis in reality however, for the historical cowboy led a grueling life full of hard labor.
Most died at a young age.
Like most kids of similar age at the time, playing ”Cowboys and Indians” out in the fields and the woods, was great fun.
Back then as kids, we made simple bow and arrows, from slender branches cut from hedgerows with penknives; and lengths of string, sneaked from mum’s kitchen cupboard more often than not.
Even designer clothing was different back then.
In the main it consisted of woolen jumpers, hand-knitted by Grandma, and non-matching, material patches, sewn onto the knees of our trousers.
We also had a regular TV show called “Out of town” with Jack Hargreaves.
John Herbert Hargreaves OBE (31 December 1911 – 15 March 1994) was an English television presenter and writer whose enduring interest was to comment without nostalgia or sentimentality on accelerating distortions in relations between the city and the countryside, seeking – in entertaining ways – to question and rebut metropolitan assumptions about its character and function. Hargreaves is remembered for appearing on How, a children’s programme which he also conceived, about how things worked or ought to work. It ran from 1966 on Southern Television (of which Hargreaves was a director) and networked on ITV until the demise of Southern in 1981.
Jack was an old, bearded man with an amiable nature, who always wore a battered hat and was rarely seen without a pipe in his mouth.
He showed us how to enjoy traditional rural life, the correct way to bait a fishing hook, and how to plant a garden etc.
The same is true to a large degree, concerning what I thought I knew about the Victorian era.
My understanding of that period of English history, was largely based upon Charles Dickens novels, and subsequent movies, such as:
‘Great Expectations’
‘Bleak House’
‘Oliver Twist’
Miles William Mathis: Charles Dickens – Library of Rickandria
It did sink in however, that during the Victorian era, there did seem to be a large number of:
- waifs and strays
- adult asylums
- juvenile asylums
- workhouses
- poorhouses
- alms houses
and so forth.
But until more recently, I had never stopped to wonder the reason why?
I had long acknowledged the fact, but had always taken it for granted; an experience common to most, I guess?
The truth is, we have all been educated and thoroughly indoctrinated in false information, to the point where most don’t question what they are told.
From time to time, we are presented with ‘historical facts’ or stumble across something which appears to be somewhat out of the ordinary, and with no given reason as to why.
At this point it’s all too easy to shrug the matter off, and think little, or no more of it.
For once we start thinking about some of these anomalies more deeply and logically, we are slowly drawn towards a somewhat daunting conclusion.
For whatever the reason, and from a relatively young age, we have been spoon-fed a concoction of:
- truth
- half-truth
- deception
and outright lies.
Our:
- parents
- schoolteachers
- tutors
are not to blame for this.
They too were indoctrinated from a young age and only taught their children what they believed to be true, and done so in good faith.
Those responsible are and always have been, the controllers of the narrative.
Magic City
Founded in March 1882, Billings, Montana, was formed by the Railroad as a western railhead for its further westward expansion.
According to Wikipedia and other sources, at first the town only had three buildings, but within just a few months the number had grown to over 2,000.
Hence Billings was nicknamed the ‘Magic City’ because, just like magic, the original 3 house hamlet seemingly became a city overnight.
A genuine mistake in the narrative?
Or a veiled admission that something else was going on?
A whole load of half buried buildings which already existed maybe?
Old world structures which were merely reclaimed and inherited by the Railroad company?
Interestingly, the Pictograph Caves are about five miles south of Billings.
These caves contain over 100 pictographs (rock paintings), the oldest of which is over 2,000 years old.
Approximately 30,000 artefacts have been excavated from the site, which proved the area has been occupied since at least shortly after Noah’s Flood.
That would be from around 2600 BC until at least after1800 AD.
(Credit: National Park Service. July 9, 1964)
My question is, why in 1964 AD, would the National Park Service refer to the area as having been occupied until 1800 A.D. or soon thereafter?
Why not say the area had been occupied until this very day in 1964?
What about the 164 years in between?
Was the area not occupied then?
Yet another genuine mistake?
Or a veiled admission that a period in the timeline has been unaccounted for?
Your guess is as good as mine.
But there were certainly many strange things going on in the 1800’s.

The Royal City
Guelph is a city in Southwestern Ontario, Canada, which due to its high proportion of truly spectacular, Gothic-Revival-style buildings, became known as “The Royal City.”
In 1831, according to Wikipedia, the village of ‘Guelph’ had around 800 residents.
An industrial watermill and a sawmill were erected in 1832 and 1833 respectively.
The Smith’s Canadian Gazetteer of 1846, indicates that Guelph at that time, had a population of just 1,240 people, mostly from England and Scotland.
Yet over the next 50 years they had built an entire city, which in this case, was constructed in true regal fashion.
By 1850, the population had grown to a little over 7,000 people and in 1856 Guelph was incorporated as a town.
Yet 6 years earlier, in 1850 they had opened a Public Library, which was part funded by the Carnegie family.
Built with cut stone, and with an elevated wrap-around architrave and decorative cornice, supported on all 4 sides of the building by rows of Corinthian columns, photos of this construction are a marvel to behold.
At the same time, it does raise a serious question.
Why invest so much time, effort and money, into building such an elaborate structure, just to house a large collection of books, on behalf of such a relatively small population of 7,000 people?
Did they really need this vast amount of literature held in such an extravagant building at the time?
Or was this grand building a preexisting structure, inherited and repurposed as a Library?
It was demolished in 1964.
For all his benevolent work and monetary donations to society, it’s worth remembering, that Andrew Carnegie was instrumental in introducing a transformational change in education.

Old City Hall is a historic building and a National Historic Site of Canada in Guelph, Ontario, Canada, which until April 2009 served as the headquarters of the city government. The building is now used as the Provincial Offences Courthouse, which handles matters such as traffic tickets, trespassing and liquor license violations.

The super-builder.
Joseph Connolly (1840–1904) was an Irish Canadian architect, born in Limerick, Ireland. He trained as an architect under James Joseph McCarthy in his native Ireland before coming to North America. Connolly specialized in Gothic Revival architecture. He is known for the churches he designed throughout Ontario, mainly for the Irish Roman Catholic community, though he also produced some industrial and residential buildings.
Joseph Connolly (architect) – Wikipedia
Born in Limerick, Ireland in 1842, Joseph Connolly trained as an architect in Europe, before returning to Dublin in 1871 to form his own practice.
Shortly thereafter, Connolly moved to Toronto, Canada, and completed an incredible 21 cathedrals before finally falling off a ladder, and meeting his demise, at the age of 64.
There appear to be no photographs or portraits of this man.
But assuming he moved to Canada at the age of 20, Joseph Connolly was able to build almost an entire cathedral each year for the rest of his life.
In his spare time, we’re told by Wikipedia that Connolly;
“also produced some industrial and residential buildings.”
What an incredible man!
Here is the list of Joseph Connolly’s achievements according to the official narrative.

With:
- towers
- spires
- antennae
- domed rotundas
and precision carved ornamentation and rose windows, each building is architecturally stunning in its own unique way.
One only has to take a careful and thoughtful look at the photographs of these incredible buildings; to realize how impossible it would have been to construct them all in the time period and manner we are told.
Whilst it cannot be proven of course, yet again the historical record is obviously a fabricated one.
To build such amazing and complex structures at the rate of virtually one cathedral per year, would be an impossible task today.
Even with the modern machinery, power tools and other specialist equipment we have at our disposal.
The lack of credibility in the official narrative is striking.
Why then, would the controllers go to such lengths to fabricate (at least in part) the early construction history of a Canadian city?
As far as I can fathom, there would be no:
- financial
- political
- economic
gain.
Nor any other incentive for them to do so.
So, if there is nothing to gain by falsifying history, is it possible for something to be lost, by tampering with history?
Yes, in one sense something was lost.
For by squeezing or including far more than is physically possible to achieve, into a given period, effectively reduces the timeline.
In this particular case, we are told that 21 cathedrals were built during an 18-year period between 1874 and 1892.
And that’s without taking into account, all the other building and construction work going on during the same period.
For at the same time, Wikipedia tells us that the residential and commercial infrastructure of the city was well underway.
New railway lines were being constructed to connect with the Great Western Railway, and gas pipes were being laid by the Guelph Gas Company.
There is also another possible reason for fabricating Canada’s early history.
From 1815 to 1850, over 800,000 immigrants arrived in Canada, chiefly from the British Isles.
Upon arrival, did these early settlers discover a whole load of buildings that should not have been there?
Architectural wonders, inherited from the old world?
Majestic buildings fit for a Royal City, and far beyond their own ability to construct?
Did the controllers concoct a cover story to justify their existence?
Is this why they crammed the construction of as many buildings as possible, into an impossible period of time?
Did Joseph Connolly even exist?
Or was he a fictional character invented by the controllers, and slotted into Canadian history to explain the presence of so many wondrous buildings that by rights, should not have been there?
Or is this all a strange coincidence?
Yes, it could indeed be considered a strange coincidence, but only if such anomalies were restricted to Canada.
Instead, a similar pattern can be found in every city across every nation on earth.
For every nation has its own equivalent of a ‘Royal City’.
Old photographs of Rio de Janeiro circa 1890 for example, with half empty streets, and the few pedestrians who are present are dwarfed by the towering infrastructure around them.
In fact, one gets the distinct impression that the glorious, perfect oversized architecture and the people are not compatible.
Rather than build them, at some point in time, the new residents of Rio de Janeiro who had moved to the city, had inherited these incredible old world structures.
In fact, when using a magnifying glass to look more closely at some early photographs of:
- London
- Paris
- New York
supposedly taken around 1920, it almost appears that telegraph poles wires, and in some instances, pedestrians and horse-drawn carts, have been superimposed onto them.
If this is the case, then we cannot even be certain if the photo was actually taken in the year we are told.
