to all HART listers-- My quick entry of the event, the "duel" left out some important information. The event took place in the town of Union Springs, county Bullock, Alabama. I thank those who asked for clarification. The article is somewhat long and I entered what material I thought would interest researchers.. the surnames. I think I was wrong the stroy was not that of an everyday occurance in 1912. Certainly it was not the wild west. My interest is that James Joel HART was my wife's and her cousins grandfather. We first heard he died of pneumonia. Later it was a duel at the courthouse steps. Now its a down and dirty gunfight which went from the street, into a store and back to the street with a lot of shots fired. MIXOM carried two guns. My question still is can I connect with any HART's from this line? Any HART's who lived in Bullock county from the early 1800's to 1925. Thanks for any help you can provide. Tom Wicks NJ
