March 30, 1871 - George Curry

A career built on bank and train robbery across the frontier West, his significance lies partly in what he passed on — Harvey Logan, whom he mentored, would go on to become one of the most violent members of the Wild Bunch. Curry's own trajectory, from regional outlaw to a founding presence in Cassidy's gang, reflects how criminal networks of the era were built through personal allegiance as much as opportunity.

George Sutherland Currie (also known as "Flat-Nose"; March 20, 1871 – April 17, 1900) was a Canadian-American robber of the American Old West. Curry was a mentor to Harvey Logan, who would adopt the surname Curry, and the two robbed banks together before both became members of Butch Cassidy's Wild Bunch.
