Seeking any information at all on Mrs. Rosa Catron who was murdered on 28 November 1928 at Big Stone Gap, Wise County, Virginia by JOHN WINTON THOMPSON, former Sheriff of Wise County, by strychnine poisoning.

She was survived by 3 sons. Need names of sons, parents, husband. Need name of cemetery where she is buried.

Note that John Winton Thompson immediately committed suicide by strychnine poisoning in Mrs. ROSA CATRON's home near the hosiery mill.

Thank you.
