Tilghman never achieved the household-word status of his close friends Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson but nevertheless remains a well-known figure of the American Old West. His memoirs were made into a 1915 film that he directed and starred in as himself. Tilghman died in 1924 at the age of 70 after being shot and killed by a corrupt prohibition agent on the streets of Cromwell, Oklahoma. Much of the fame that he has since achieved has been attributed to the efforts of his second wife, who published his biography in 1949. In 1960, he was inducted into the Hall of Great Westerners of the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum.

När Oklahoma öppnade för nybyggare, 1889, var han en av de första som anlände och bildade sitt första hem i Guthrie. 1891 blev han utnämnd till deputy United States marshal. De följande 19 åren arbetade han och blev åter vald av varje United States marshal ända tills 1910. Han var effektiv och modig och hade mer laglösa att tävla med än någon annan lagman i hela sydväst. Bl.a. skrev Västern-legenden Bat Masterson en artikel om honom i tidningen Human Life, där han beskrev incidenter och detaljer om Tilghmans uppdrag som deputy marshal. När Bill Tilghman slutade 1910 blev han invald i senaten men han valde att hoppa av och bli polischef i Oklahoma City. 1914 pensionerades han och följande år hjälpte han till att göra reklam för filmen The Passing of the Oklahoma Outlaws. 1878 gifte sig Tilghman med Flora Kendall. De fick fyra barn: Charles A., William Jr, Dottie och Vonnie. Flora Tilghman dog 1910. Därefter gifte han om sig med Zoe Stratton och bodde i Oklahoma City. De fick tre söner: Tench, Richard och Woodrow Wilson Tilghman.
