OK. This is waayyyy out there, but..... Do you know anything about him prior to his marriage in 1902? Have you been able to find him on the 1900 census? I have recently found out that my mystery man, Harvey Bolin, may have changed his (last) name, at least, to a name related to the man who he murdered - the victim's mother's maiden name was Martin. One of Harvey's sons later lived in Knoxville - and I have wondered if the son was living with/near his father for a time. All we REALLY know for sure is that Harvey Bolin killed a man in Moore Co. TN in 1900, and Harvey was supposedly "never heard from again." The rumor from the victim's family side of the story, that Harvey may have changed his name to a name related to his victim, gives me some additional possible leads. It is a longer shot than anything, and probably nothing but fiction, but just thought I'd ask, to see if you know anything about your man prior to 1902.
