Re:Emma Owen's Murder On Easter Sunday 1895 in Talbot County, Georgia In the book "There Was a Land, A History of Talbot County, Georgia" by Judge Robert H. Jordan 1971 there is a 13-page story of the murder and trial about this murder. It gives the date of the murder as Easter Sunday, April 5, 1896. I am not sure which of the dates is correct; however, according to a Owen genealogy book Sallie Emma Owen was born in 1873 and died in 1895. She was the daughter of Daniel Grant Owen, Jr. and Sarah Beaufort Reed. If you do not have access to the book, please write me and I will scan the pages and send them to you. Bobbie Bryan Coons
