Dora DuFran Madam Dora DuFran or Dora Bolshaw (née Amy Helen Dorothy Bolshaw) (November 16, 1868 - August 5, 1934)〔 findagrave.com http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Dufran&GSiman=1&GScid=97271&GRid=8089519& Accessed July 2, 2014 〕 was one of the leading and most successful madams in the Old West days of Deadwood, South Dakota. == Biography == Dora was born in Liverpool, England and emigrated to the United States with her parents Joseph John (November 14, 1842 - March 26, 1911) and Isabella Neal (Cummings) Bolshaw (November 12, 1844 - April 12, 1911) sometime around 1869. The family settled first at Bloomfield, New Jersey, then moved to Lincoln, Nebraska in 1876 or 1877. She was an extremely good looking woman in her youth, and became involved in prostitution around the age of 13 or 14. She then became a dance hall girl, calling herself Amy Helen Bolshaw. The gold rush hit Deadwood, South Dakota when she was around 15, and Dora promoted herself to ''Madam'' and began operating a brothel. Dora coined the term "cathouse".〔Adams Museum website〕
