The Passenger List reads: Robert McClune 21 male Laborer Agnes " 20 female Spinster So, even though it appears as though they were married at the time of passage, Agnes is listed as a spinster and they were not officially married until 4 Jun 1854, after they arrived in Philadelphia, PA. Robert worked as a cooper (barrel maker) in the oil fields of Pennsylvania. In 1865, they moved to Coal Valley, Illinois by covered wagon. In 1874, the family moved to a farm in Iowa County, Iowa.

| 146 | Ancestry.com message: rburrows110 Sep 4 2:03 AM GMT Hi, I noticed your Listing on Ancestry for Mary Jane Johnston(1838-1918) who was married to Robert John Bell (1830-1892). This was very interesting since Mary Jane Johnston was the older sister of my Great Grandmother Isabella Johnston (1845-1889) who was married to my Great Grandfather William John Burrows(1844-1884). Both lived and died young in Newtownards, County Down, Northern Ireland. Their one Son David Burrows was my Grandfather who lived in Pittsburgh. I was amazed to recently find out that my Great Grandmother's older sister Mary Jane Johnston Bell actually came to Pittsburgh in 1892 and was living with her Daughter Mary Ann Bell Bruder and her Husband Herman Bruder. I would like to know how you are tied into the Johnston Bell family. I have a number of great vintage pictures of the Johnston-Bell-Bruder family members at a family reunion in Riverside Park on the Pittsburgh North Side on Aug 1917 that I would enjoy sharing with you. I live in Pittsburgh. My E-mail address is rburrows110@comcast.net. I would love to get any vintage pictures of Mary Jane Johnston Bell since I have no pictures of my Great Grandparents Isabella Johnston Burrows and William John Burrows. I look forward to hearing from you. Bob Burrows | JOHNSTON, Isabella (I8580)

I transcribed them, word for word, to the best of my ability. Where forms were used, I transcribed the printed words in italics. Where words were not understandable, I have indicated that in the text by inserting “(unclear).” Some of the recorded testimony is written without punctuation and in the vernacular of that time. Spelling was not always accurate. The present document is divided into three parts. Part I deals with the killing of William H. Long, and Part II concerns the killing of William Wileman. Part III contains my comments on and interpretations of the information in the documents. These are derived from my own experiences and from my genealogical research over many years. I make no claim that all of the information is correct. No doubt, there are errors. I have tried not to be judgmental. Since I intend to update this document from time to time, I would appreciate any comments and corrections that are sent to me. Donald L.

(The GPS coordinates are UTM 16 594529E 3905520N.) This is the creek (branch) referred to in the above documents. At that time of year (spring), the branch was probably swollen to the extent that one could not easily jump or wade across, as could be done in dry weather, even by a woman and her “little son. My home was about 500 yards northeast of this site, and we could look across the fields and see it. Many times, I fished in Yellow Branch at a hole about 50 yards away from the site where the cabin stood. Sequence of events: The first incident occurred in the evening (afternoon) of Thursday, March 13, 1862. David S. Long, apparently a constable, came to the site on that date. He reported the killing to Lewis Anderson, Justice of the Peace, on Friday, March 15. Anderson prepared two documents, one stating that D. S. Long had reported to him and the other authorizing the arrest of William Wileman. Apparently, the arrest was accomplished quickly, and a trial (hearing) before Anderson was set for the next day, Sunday, March 16. On March 16, the hearing was held and the defendant pled “not guilty. Still, Anderson, in strong language, wrote that he considered the defendant guilty of murder in the second degree and placed Wileman under a bond of $1000. The purpose of a second document, with the same date, also mentioning the bond, is not clear. There is little question about Wileman’s inability to come up with this amount, even in Confederate money. He was apparently kept in jail for some time. Also on March 16, the witnesses, Emily Whitaker, G W Perryman, Garland M Woods, Martha Ann Warren, and Mary Jane Warren, placed themselves under a bond of $250 to appear in court as witnesses for the state. On Monday, March 24, testimony before a grand jury was given. The testimony of Emily Whitaker, 53 years old, was potentially strong when she said that Wileman told her that “ cut my best. The 15-year-old Martha Ann Warren stated that Wileman said that he was going to cut two or three throats. Martha Ann’s 12-year-old sister also stated that Wileman said was going to cut some throats. This could be interpreted to mean that Wileman intended to harm Long and Wileman’s wife. He may have suspected that Long was romantically involved with his wife. G. W. Perryman, 48 years old, testified that Wileman’s wife Jane had been cut under the left breast. Perryman said that Wileman stroped the knife through his fingers, apparently to show that there was no blood on it. It is not clear what Perryman was referring to when he said that Jane and among them had done it while he was taking Mrs. Whitaker across the branch. He was likely referring to the fact that Long’s body had been turned over. It is possible, however, that he was accusing his wife of killing Long. Garland Woods, apparently a physician, gave brief testimony describing his examination of the dead William H. Long. In relation to the second incident, which occurred on September 25, 1870, John Nugent was asked to set up a Jury of Inquest. At that time, Martha Ann Warren was married. She may have been at Wileman’s home when he was killed. A grand jury examined the case, but did not indict the three men. Participants: 1. William Wileman (1829-1870) was the accused in Part I and the victim in Part II. He was the son of Levi Wileman (1796-?) and Annie (1807-?). He may be buried in the Wileman Cemetery in Coffee County. 2. Jane Taylor (1825-?) was the wife of William Wileman. She had been married to George Warren (1817-?) on 3/7/1846 by John Nugent. In the 1880 census, she was living in the same area with her daughter Martha and her grandchildren, Calvin, Samuel, and Emma. 3. William H. Long (1817-1862), the victim in Part I, was married to Sarah T. Farris (1833-?) on 4/12/1848. His parents are not known. No further record of her has been found. 4. David S. Long (1814-1896) was apparently the constable for this area in 1862. He was the son of Alexander M. Long (1791-1865) and Lucinda (1800-?). 5. Lewis Anderson (1814-1882) was Justice of the Peace in the 8th Civil District. He moved to the area from Virginia. 6. William Rose – (unidentified. He was probably a clerk at the courthouse.) 7. (Mrs.) Emily Whitaker (1828-?) was daughter of Edward Whitaker (1810- ?). 8. Mrs. Whitaker’s little son The only known child of Emily Whitaker is Jasper N. Whitaker (1851-1895), who would have been 11 years old in 1862. Jasper became the first of two husbands of Martha Ann (Sis) Partin (1856-1937). 9. G. W. Perryman (1820-?) lived in Jackson County, AL, (south of Franklin Co., TN) in 1860. 10. Garland (Miller) Woods (1835-1910), the son of Thomas Harris Woods (1810-1880) and Appoline Shelton Miller (1812-1856), was apparently a physician. 11. Martha Ann Warren (Martha A. Gipson) (1845-?) was the daughter of George Warren (1817-?) and Jane Taylor, William Wileman’s wife. In 1868, Martha Ann married Benjamin D. Gipson (ca1820-?), who was the father of her daughter, Emma Jane. 12. Mary Jane Warren (1848-?) was also a daughter of George Warren and Jane Taylor. In 1866, she married James Monroe Wilcox (1845-1909). 13. Nathan (S.) Frizzell (1809-1871) lived in Winchester. He was a clerk in the courthouse. 14. C. C. Garner (foreman of the grand jury). This is possibly Calvin Commodore Garner (1830-1903), who lived in Lost Cove. 15. John Oliver (1793-1868) was a prominent citizen of Hawkersville (Alto). 16. John Wilder (1830-1906), my great grandfather, was a prominent citizen of the area to be named Wilder’s Chapel. 17. Rowland Morris (1812-1899) was a prominent citizen who lived in the area. 18. John Frizzell, attorney general (no other information). Apparently, he was not related to Nathan Frizzell. 19. Dallis Wiley - W. D. Wiley, age 26, was living with William Wileman and Jane in 1860 (no other information). 20. Arthur Long (1851-?) son of the slain William H. Long, lived in the 9th Civil District of Franklin County (no other information) 21. David Perryman (1841-?), the son of George W. Perryman, lived in the 9th Civil District of Franklin County and in Jackson Co., AL. (no other information) 22. J. S. Johnson (attorney general, no other information) 23. John Nugent (1795-?), apparently serving as a Justice of the Peace at the time of the second killing, came to Franklin County from South Carolina. 24. J. M. Smith, prosecutor (no information) 25. G. W. Wileman (1857-?) was the son of William Wileman and Jane Taylor. He married Minerva Ann Baker (ca1859-?). 26. Domita R. Wileman (1859-?) was the daughter of William Wileman and Jane Taylor. In the 1860 census, she was listed as “unnamed female.” (no other information) 27. George W. Hunt, foreman of the second grand jury (1813-1899), was a wealthy farmer living in Civil District # 1 (Winchester). Conclusions: It appears likely that Bill Wileman and his wife were engaged in a “domestic dispute” and that Bill Long tried to intervene. It is not known if Wileman was convicted of this killing. Since it occurred during the unsettled times of the Civil War, he may not have been sent to the penitentiary or even subjected to a trial. In any case, he was at home in 1870, when riders arrived and shot him. The accused men, however, were not brought to trial. Remaining questions: 1. Why was Mrs. Whitaker and her son present when Long was killed? 2. How much time did Wileman spend in jail? 3. Was Jane Taylor Wileman at home when Wileman was shot? If so, why was she not called to testify? Apparently the two children that they had together were at home, for they were called. In 1880, Jane (55) was living in the 9th district with her daughter Martha (29) and Martha’s children Calvin (15), Samuel (13), and Emma (10). 4. Why were Wileman and Jane not listed in the 1870 census of Franklin County? The census for the 9th district was taken in June of that year. Arthur Long, Dallas Wiley, and David Perryman are also not listed in the records of 1870 or 1880. 5. Why were the three men not indicted? Perhaps the testimony, which is not recorded, was limited to the two children, who may not have been able to clearly identify the men. Martha Ann Warren Gipson may have been present, but she also may not have been able to see the men in the darkness. Legend: The story, told many times around campfires of possum hunters is that the three men rode up to Wileman’s house and called him out to his front porch. After he was shot, he fell and his blood stained one of the two rocks holding up the porch. With the passing of a few years, his cabin and smokehouse disappeared, leaving only the two stones. It is said that, when it snowed, Wileman’s blood could be seen through the snow that fell on the stained rock. Follow-up: My cousin James Otis (Jimmy) Hill, who now lives on the site where I lived, about ¼ of a mile northeast of the site of the Wileman cabin, retrieved the rock about 1980 and placed it in his yard. It remains there today. Additional Comments:I hope I am submitting this under the proper category. If not, please place it in a category that is more appropriate.
