Cade's County
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cade's County was a modern-day Western/crime drama which aired on CBS during the 1971-72 television season. There were 24 episodes.
Cade's County starred well-known Hollywood actor Glenn Ford as Sam Cade, the sheriff of the fictional Madrid County, California, a vast and sparsely-populated desert area which was apparently located well inland near the Nevada border. His chief deputy was J. J. Jackson, portrayed by the character actor Edgar Buchanan. Together they fought to maintain law and order against violent miners, cattle thieves, and other lawbreakers who for the most would have seemed at home in Westerns set in any era. Cade usually drove a Jeep, as many of the roads in his jurisdiction were apparently little more than tracks across the sand.
Several of the characters, including some of Cade's deputies, were Native Americans. Another deputy was played by Ford's son, Pete (also the name of his character).
