Dutch Voigt was a German American gang leader in Galveston, Texas in the United States during the early 1900s. Voigt was called ''Dutch'' for ''Deutsch'' meaning ''German''. He, with Ollie Quinn, led the Beach Gang, one of the two gangs which controlled most of the Galveston underworld until the mid-1920s. As the Prohibition era began his gang came to be one of the dominant forces in the Galveston liquor trade. Voigt ushered in the modern era of gambling on the island when by establishing organized poker games in 1910.〔Nieman (2008), pg. 5.〕 He and Quinn soon ran games all over the city. ==See also== *Free State of Galveston *Johnny Jack Nounes *Ollie Quinn *Rosario Maceo *Sam Maceo 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dutch Voight」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
