The Barrow Gang
Bonnie Parker
Bonnie Parker was a notorious American outlaw who, alongside her partner Clyde Barrow, led a crime spree during the Great Depression. Born in Rowena, Texas, she was known for her intelligence, love of poetry, and loyalty to Clyde. Despite her small stature and romanticized image, Bonnie was deeply involved in the gang's robberies and evasion of law enforcement. She died in a police ambush with Clyde in 1934.
Clyde Barrow
Clyde Barrow was the leader of the Barrow Gang, responsible for numerous robberies, car thefts, and murders between 1932-34. Born in Ellis County, Texas, he grew up in poverty and turned to crime at a young age. Initially starting with petty theft, his crimes escalated to bank robberies and violent confrontations with law enforcement. Clyde was known for his driving skills and ruthlessness. He was killed alongside Bonnie Parker in a police ambush in 1934.
Buck Barrow
Marvin Ivan "Buck" Barrow was Clyde's older brother and a key member of the Barrow Gang. Although he initially tried to live a lawful life, he was drawn into crime by his brother. He participated in several robberies and shootouts but was mortally wounded during a gun battle with police in Iowa in 1933. He died from his injuries a few days later.
Blanche Barrow
Blanche Barrow was Buck Barrow's wife and an unwilling accomplice in the Barrow Gang. She was drawn into the gang's criminal activities because of her loyalty to Buck. Blanche was captured after the same gun battle in Iowa that fatally wounded Buck. She served time in prison but later lived a quiet life and eventually shared her experiences, offering insights into the gang's operations.
W.D. Jones
William Daniel "W.D." Jones joined Bonnie and Clyde's gang at the age of 16. He was involved in robberies and was present during several violent encounters with the law. Despite his youth, he played a significant role in the gang's activities. After his capture in 1933, he cooperated with authorities and served time in prison. He later lived a relatively quiet life.
Henry Methvin
Henry Methvin was a late addition to the Barrow Gang and played a pivotal role in their eventual downfall. His father's cooperation with law enforcement led to the ambush that killed Bonnie and Clyde. Although Methvin was involved in violent crimes, including the murder of a police officer, he received leniency for his role in helping authorities capture the notorious couple.
Raymond Hamilton
Raymond Hamilton was an early associate of Clyde Barrow and a member of the Barrow Gang. Known for his temper and criminal ambition, he was involved in multiple robberies and murders. After splitting from the gang, he was captured, sentenced to death, and executed by electric chair in 1935 for separate criminal activities.
Ralph Fults
Ralph Fults was one of Clyde Barrow's earliest criminal partners. He participated in robberies and other criminal activities but was imprisoned before Bonnie and Clyde's most notorious period. After serving time, Fults reformed and spent the rest of his life advocating against crime, sharing his experiences to deter others from following a similar path.
