    1. James Chisholm Murdered!
    2. Dear List: I have just received a death certificate for someone that I believe is a relative. His name is James Chisholm and he was born around 1886, he murdered on the 3rd of February 1906 near Georgetown, Florida in Putnam County. The cause of death was a shot from a. 38 caliber pistol, the death certificate says verdict was a willful murder. James was buried February 4th, 1906 without a funeral director. could anyone tell me where Georgetown is near, and is there a cemetery near there for blacks. Also if anyone has any information on those kinds of killings during those times. Thank you in advance. Sincerely, Antoinette Russell Researching chisholms form Hanover and Louisa Counties Virginia, Chester,S.C. and Gainesville, Florida and vicinity.
