Other than being a traveling ranch-hand and having a son, Solomon's background is unknown.
Events of Red Dead Redemption[]
Solomon can be found in and around MacFarlane's Ranch, usually doing odd jobs, like tending to the hay or fixing tables or crates with a hammer. He sometimes works inside the Foreman's Office. He can also be found working his trade in Ridgewood Farm or traveling through various settlements on horseback or a wagon with other NPC's. During nighttime, he and Willie Henning will always sleep on the ground near the player's bed at the Ridgewood Farm Safehouse. He can also be found playing Liar's Dice in Escalera and in Casa Madrugada.
Events of Undead Nightmare[]
In Undead Nightmare, Solomon can be found defending the settlement of MacFarlane's Ranch where he is on the roof of a house. If MacFarlane's Ranch is saved and Solomon survives, he will stand on a porch by the fire. Solomon can also be found at Fort Mercer. Since Fort Mercer is a safe zone, Solomon is in no danger from the Undead hordes. In a random encoutner, he can be found in the wilderness defending himself against a bunch of undeads with Silas Gaskell and Melvin Spinney, or just Gaskell, and the player can choose whether to save him and the others or let him and the others be killed by the undead.
