killed people for using his nickname?

The current revision contains the claims

He hated it enough that he killed two men just for calling him "Pretty Boy," and his dying words were "I'm Charles Arthur Floyd!"

Does anybody have a source for these? They sound like legends. Uucp 18:04, 22 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This is legend, not fact. I'm rewording the passage accordingly. Hiddekel 04:59, 22 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

There is a bed and breakfast in East Liverpool, Ohio, housed in the funeral home where Pretty Boy Floyd was embalmed. It's called Sturgis House and is run by town funeral director Frank Dawson. It has Pretty Boy Floyd memoriabilia. http://sturgishouse.com/was gay

... what?

Could someone please explain to me what

Ludacris ft. Pharrel. -Money maker

means in the context of this article? Cactus Wren 23:22, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Birth

This section starts by referring to Floyd the individual, but then the section uses word "they" (There they lived on the street until Charles was about ten years old. They then moved to the Cookson Hills of Oklahoma). Who's "they"? His family? This wording should be clarified. 0xDEADC0DE
