Webb (1851-1936) came to Wyoming in 1883 from Louisiana and homesteaded the Hat Ranch on the north fork of the Powder River in Johnson County, Wyoming in 1891. Janet Mercer Webb is the daughter of Asa S. Mercer, the author of "The Banditti of the Plains", an account of the Johnson County War of 1892.
