    3. Sarah, Would this indirect relative know the exact date that Charley was hung or at least the year? How about where his body was taken? Or where he was buried?

    3. Rita, I'm sorry but I last saw the man in 1982 and he was elderly then so I'm sure that he has passed away. I do not even know if he had any children. As I saidk, he was an indirect relative of my mother's and she passed away in 1978. Sorry I cannot be of help.
