My husband descends from Mary Biggs. I have heard a story that she was murdered and would love to find documentation. Her date of death was August 18, 1842 in Harrison Co. and she was buried in Musselman Cemetery. The story claims that she was beheaded, stuffed in a barrel and thrown into Buck Creek. It would seem that something like this would make the headlines if there were any local papers at the time. Can anyone help?
