George Curry (Wild Bunch)


George Sutherland Currie , also known as George FlatNose Curry, was an 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 Cassidys Wild Bunch. Curry would be killed by a Sheriff while rustling in Grand County, Utah.

Currie was born in West Point, Prince Edward Island, Canada in 1871, the second of six children of John and Nancy Ann Currie. His family moved to Chadron, Nebraska where he started rustling as a young man. He gained the soubriquets Big Nose, and Flatnose and took up residence at the outlaw hideout HoleintheWall, Wyoming. While there, he met Harvey Logan, who adopted his surname and became known as Kid Curry. The Kids brothers Lonny and Johnnie Logan, following his example, also adopted Curry as a surname. Kid Curry would go on to become one of the most dangerous and feared gunmen of the Old West.
