Butler, in a shooting competition that rose her to fame as an international star to both royalty, and heads of the state. Born within Ohio, Annie was the sixth-born out of nine children, conceived by her parents. However, after her mother lost two in a miscarriage, Annie became the fifth out of the seven surviving children. Living in poverty, she, her five sisters, and one brother couldn't regularly attend school, or earn a proper education. However, at eight years old, right after her father's passing, Annie began working at the Darke County Infirmary, where she, in exchange, received an education, and developed the skill of sewing, while attending to the elderly, the orphaned, and the mentally ill. This experience aroused Annie’s lifelong compassion towards others, until she left at fifteen. Returning to her mother's home, Annie supported her by involving herself in trapping, shooting, and hunting wild game to sell at local shops and restaurants. She was so successful; she was able to repay the entire $200 mortgage on their family farm. During this time, Annie was approached and challenged by Irish exhibition shooter, Frank E. Butler, in a shooting competition to not miss twenty-five shots. In the end, he lost by one bullet. Professionally, after taking on the stage name of "Oakley", Annie traveled west, and gave shooting exhibitions to entertain the public. She became so well-known; she became the top earner out of any performer on the Western fold. After impressing the most imposing and famous of individuals, like Queen Victoria and Cherokee Chief "Sitting Bull", she quickly became a national celebrity with her name being plastered across both America and Europe. Aside from her deadeye ability to strike a target, Annie's inner strength helped her survive a difficult childhood, and while her strong integrity, dignity, and propriety served her well throughout her life, she quietly proved to be just as superior as men in the shooting range. Annie is very friendly, compassionate, clever, "superhumanly" headstrong, and quite "angelic" in her mannerisms. Still a (literal) virgin to men, while her family is not even aware of her true desires for both genders, Annie’s modesty and reserved elegance can make her a rather likable yet very attractive individual. From her humble roots as Phoebe Ann Moses, to taking center stage as Annie Oakley, this remarkably dazzling young woman was remembered to be one of America's greatest western legends, where people, including expert shooters, continue to marvel at her skills and abilities in marksmanship. As various targets were thrown in the air, she was able to use five different guns, and shoot every single one in ten seconds, while riding a horse; even better, she could shoot off the end of a cigarette, split the edge of a playing card, and leave holes in tossed coins; she can even do some feats without looking.
