History
In 1885, Dr. Emmett Brown applied his mechanical and scientific skills to performing the work of a blacksmith, living at and working from a livery stable in Hill Valley, though it was also a front to conceal his hiding and attempted repairs of the DeLorean time machine.
Doc became quite adept at shoeing horses and fixing wagons, and gradually came to accept his new life in the Old West — as he would mention in his letter sent via several generations of Western Union to Marty McFly in 1955.
