BOWMAN McABEE
I am searching for information about Alfred Delafayette BOWMAN. He served

War. He married Martha Jane McAbee in 1866 in Whitfield Co., GA. I suspect
he lived in Dade County prior to the War. I am searching for him and
information on who his parents were. He died in Henderson Co., TX in 1894
having moved here from War Eagle, Arkansas in 1890. He served as an elected
Justice of the Peace in War Eagle. Any help or information would be much
appreciated.

I have heard that someone on this list has the Dade Times in their

"Triple Hanging" that occurred on Aug.1,1884 in Scottsboro, Jackson County,
AL. It involved George and Asbury Hughes from Shellmound, Marion
County, TN - their stepfather John W. Grayson, I think that he was
from somewhere near Shellmound but in AL - another young man by the
name of George Smith from Dade County, GA. They were accused of
burning Henry Porter's home on Porter's Bluff. If anyone has any
information about this hanging or copies of any newspaper accounts of this
hanging, please email me. Also if anyone knows of any photos that were ever
taken of this event. The hanging took place in Scottsboro, Jackson County,
AL. Also if anyone knows what happened to John W. Grayson or where
George Smith was buried. The two Hughes boys were buried on their father's
farm in Rhea County, TN. Their mother was Catherine Margaret Mathis
Hughes Grayson. I would like to know what happened to mother after they
died. I would also like to know about the Smith family and the Porter's. I
know that Mr. Porter died a few months before the hanging and Mrs. Porter
died about 13 years later. They are buried on Porter's Bluff. If any one
is interested in this story, or can give me more information, please contact
me. Thank you so much.

I know his family was in Morganville GA, Dade County. Very few facts
survived but I would like to have more info. for my children/grand-children.
