Archibald McKillop murdered 1894 Chicago
I am searching for information on Archibald McKillop, a 31-year old railroad conductor in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, who was murdered 12 June 1894 by a man named Calvin F. Keatley.McKillop apparently had romanced Keatley's daughter Emily and then refused to marry her, prompting an angry Keatley to shoot him dead to avenge his daughter's honor. He was arrested for the crime, but the prosecutor dropped the case against him two years later.
If anyone has any genealogical information on McKillop or is at all familiar with the incident, please contact me.
Thanks!
Deborah.
