SUMMARY:A Bite of History
DESCRIPTION:The Bloody Massacre \nBoston’s Deadly Start of the American Revolution \nOn a cold night in early March of 1770\, a dustup by British Colonials in the streets outside the Boston Customs House became the unsuspecting flashpoint that many argue was the start of one of the most audacious actions in world history… the American Revolution. \nWhat started with snowballs ended in gunfire and the death of five Bostonians. Stoked by the\niconic engraving by Paul Revere\, the moment became a rallying point for a people ready for\nchange. \nJoin us for part one of our three-part series “Road to Independence – Three Sparks That Ignited a Revolution” as MNTx celebrates America 250 with this special speakers series. Presented by award-winning historian and Museum of North Texas History CEO\, Jeremy Davis\, Road to Independence is a great way to kickoff a historic summer! \nThis month’s Bite of History is Thursday\, April 30th. Doors open at 11:30am and presentation starts promptly at 12:00pm. \nTickets are $10 for MNTx Members and $15 for the general public. Tickets are expected to go fast\, with only 40 tickets available for this month’s presentation. Tickets are available for purchase in person at the Museum or online

SUMMARY:A Bite of History
DESCRIPTION:Twisted Love in North Texas \nHometowns love to be known for unique landmarks\, memorable events\, or famous residents\, but Wichita Falls may forever be known for a chilling distinction – it’s the birthplace of a cold-blooded serial killer. Meet Jack – once a U.S. Army Sergeant\, now a man whose name is linked with murder. A master manipulator and a brutal killer\, Jack’s preferred victims weren’t just strangers – they were his wives. \n“Till death do us part” wasn’t just a vow he made at the altar. For Jack\, it was a contract – one he intended to fulfill no matter the cost. As his wives grew tired of his dark side\, Jack made sure he kept his promise\, ensuring that “till death” was always part of the deal. From the altar to the grave\, Jack’s twisted love story is one that Wichita Falls may never forget. \nJoin us Oct 30th as Dr. Pam Morgan shares one more… Bite of History. Seating is limited to 36 guests. \nTickets are $10 for MNTx Members and $15 for the general public. \nDon’t miss your chance to take A Bite of History – one lunch at a time!

SUMMARY:A Bite of History September 2025
DESCRIPTION:The City National Bank Robbery of 1896 Swift Retribution. They died with their boots on. \nPremonitions\, Texas Rangers\, Outlaws\, a Posse\, a Comedy\, and a cast of unlikely heroes all play a role in the story of the City National Bank robbery of 1896 and the notorious hanging that followed. Wichita Falls wasn’t the wild west\, but it wasn’t far from it. Newspapers across the state criticized the citizens and residents of North Texas for taking the law into their own hands by dealing with the bank robbers their way. Unapologetic\, the community stood firmly behind their decision and even tossed criticism back at the state. It was an event that would be talked about for decades\, and swift retribution that sent a clear message to all outlaws. Meet the characters and learn the locations where one of our most infamous events took place. \nPresenter for September is:\nMr. John Yates\, Wichita County Historical Commission \nDoors open at 11:30am
