About July 1884, John and Charles P'Pool/Pool got into a quarrel with Elijah
and John Alexander. The Alexanders were shot ...Elijah died.

John Pool was married at the time to the Alexander's sister, Susan and
Charles Pool would marry their sister, Amanda, in a short time. The
Alexanders were also cousins of the Pools...their mother was a Pool. The
story goes that the Pool brothers left for Texas the day after the shooting.

I searched for records in Breckinridge County Court House but found no
record also searched for a newspaper record and couldn't find any. I heard
the story from both the Alexander and Pool sides and I believe it's
true.....any of you Breckinridge County researchers have any suggestions?
Any reasons a record of the shooting would not be in the criminal records?
