Should I read that as an "Uncle" from Slim?

I'll give you this - He carried a "Wild" in front of his given name, like numerous other Old West characters.  Dontcha kinda like his outfit?

The only one I can think of is Wild Bill Hickok.  But I doubt that is him with a S&W.

Slim got another one right.  It's definitely not Wild Bill Hickok.

Subject of this photo is not a well-known character, but I have seen the photo in more than one reference source.  His first name is "Ben"

'Fraid not.  Remember, his name is "Wild Ben ________". 

Probably gonna have to give up on this one shortly, 'cause he is pretty obscure.

His name was "Wild Ben Raymond".  Don't know anything about him, but was hoping some of you might have some info on him, or know of that photo with another name indicated.  He definitely looks like someone with an interesting past.

That is the only thing it found for me too. Well, maybe not, Steve Paulsen of Sioux City, Iowa is using that alias.
