The word "Buckaroo" is descended ("Anglo-Speak!" or, Anglicized pronunciation) that evolved from the Spanish word "Vaquero" which means fine horseman and cowman ("v" is pronounced "b" in Spanish).

The Buckaroo Hall of Fame and Heritage Museum was first established in 1988 and then incorporated in 1989 by Carl F. Hammond, in honor of his father, Francis Hammond. It is currently housed in the East Hall of the Convention Center in Winnemucca Nevada. There are 70 some inductees, with photos and memorabilia, in the museum. This museum preserves the Buckaroo Heritage of the Great Basin area of the west; where true legends of this great country will live on.
