Subject: [McCr] Newspaper articles 1927
Date: Thu, 13 Jul 2000 20:34:08 -0500


I am looking for newspaper articles concerning the convictions of Willie and Tom Gilreath. They were convicted on murder charges on April 7, 1927 in McCreary Co., KY. They both received LIFE sentences, but Tom and Willie Gilreath were commuted by the Governor on Dec 5, 1931. Tom receiving parole in April 30, 1932 and Willie in April 7, 1933.

Is there anyone who would look for articles in the newspaper (McCreary Co., or possible nighboring Co.) around these dates. Would love to have more detailed information.

Thanks.

Paula
