Re Post # 152 and as to why the State of New Mexico, USA, does not really desire a DNA test to be done on the remains of the so-called "Billy the Kid": My understanding, Robert, is that it would significantly impact the drawing of tourists (read "revenue"!) to the subject's grave-site, museum/s, sale of commemorative souvenirs, et al., if it was proven that the remains were NOT those of "Billy the Kid."
Thus they seemingly ascribe to the maxim: "A bird in the hand........" Regards, AP.
