John Ewers 1914 Oklahoma
Would any of you nice folks know of a fued between John Ewers and Carter Hollingsworth in September, 1914?John lived in the very north east corner of OK and Carter lived in the very south east corner of KS. They lived about a mile a part.John's livestock destroyed Carter's fences, gardens, field crops and some of his fruit.Carter was 76 years old at the time. I believe (no proof) Carter's son, Charles, may have became involved on hisfathers behalf and did away with John. Carter Hollingsworth is my great grandfather and I know for a fact that Charles shot and killed a man around 1914. He then changed his name to Johnson and got lost. I have proof of the fued from a court record in Galena, Cherokee Co,KS which did not carry any weight in OklahomaI would appreciate any information to be shared--thank you, Ken
