Not willing to just sit back and hope for the best, Britt took matters into his own hands. Set out, alone, into Indian Territory. Determined to get his family back, one way or another. And believe it or not, he was successful. Unfortunately he made some enemies along the way, a desperate savage foe who were just biding their time until they could catch up with Johnson once again. John Ford\u2019s 1956 masterpiece starring John Wayne, The Searchers, is said to be inspired by Britt Johnson. &amp;nbsp; Email me! https:\/\/www.wildwestextra.com\/contact\/ &amp;nbsp; Check out my website! https:\/\/www.wildwestextra.com\/ &amp;nbsp; Buy me a coffee! https:\/\/www.buymeacoffee.com\/wildwest &amp;nbsp; The First Battle of Adobe Walls - https:\/\/www.wildwestextra.com\/firstadobewalls\/ &amp;nbsp; Satanta\u2019s Flight - https:\/\/www.wildwestextra.com\/satantas-last-flight-kiowa\/ &amp;nbsp; Elm Creek Raid -  https:\/\/www.frontiertimesmagazine.com\/blog\/the-indian-raid-in-young-county-written-henry-c-williams-newcastle-texas &amp;nbsp; Brit Johnson, The Real Searcher - https:\/\/www.historynet.com\/brit-johnson-real-searcher.htm &amp;nbsp; Britton Johnson, Christy Claridy -  https:\/\/www.texasranger.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Artifacts-Britton-Johnson.pdf &amp;nbsp; Indian Depredations in Texas, J.
