The parentage of James Butler "Wild Bill" Hickok is not as described here.The best source for his family is a group of books on him and his family written by his own niece.There she describes him as son of William Alonso Hickok, of Illinois.William Alonso was son of Oliver Otis Hickok, a War of 1812 veteran, son of Revolutionary War soldier Aaron Hickok of Pittsfield, Mass. and Rutland Co., Vt.Aaron was son of Stephen, a great-grandson of immigrant William.
