STORE KEEPER KILLED NOV 1889
My original post said that:
my gr-gfather J. T. Shiplet was shot in his store.He was married to Nancy Roann Cooper.Does anyone know anything about this incident?
Have rec'd the following info from Jeff Renner:
JT was shot and killed at Dyer's Mill on Line Creek (actually probably on Dyer's Branch of Line Creek) on 20 December 1889. I know neither who shot him nor why, although I've heard it had to do with a situation involving his wife, Nancy.
If this helps pinpoint something, does anyone know who the killer was. I have been told it was Killus Price who went to prison for 8 years. Also Killus is aka Achilles.
Thanks to everyone.
