Ethan Cord was a grizzled professional gunfighter living in
the frontier mining town of Paradise, California, during the
1890s. His outlook on life and responsibility were changed
radically when his dying sister, Lucy Cord Carroll, a singer in
a musical revue in St. Louis, sent her four children out West
to live with their uncle. Although he wasn't convinced that
he could adjust to the role of parent, Ethan rented a farmhouse
from Amelia Lawson, owner of the Paradise Bank and soon
his new love interest, moved his family in. Despite his efforts
to become a peaceable rancer, a more suitable living for a
man with a family, Ethan was still hired for his skills with a
gun and called upon to protect the honest folk of Paradise from
criminals. Indian medicine man John Taylor was his close
friend, a quiet man who always was around when he was
needed, particularly when a gunfight was imminent. Among the
townspeople seen frequently ere Scotty the bartender,
Tiny the blacksmith, storekeepers Lee and Axelrod, and Mr.
Dodd, who worked in the hotel. When the series returned in
early 1991 Ethan was in the process of becoming the town's new
Marshal; he was building a new home for the children and his
new fiance, Amelia; and he had acquired a new friend, a
brash young gambler named Dakota, who came to Paradise
to avenge his father's shooting and stayed in hopes of
winning large sums of money from those working the mines.
