According to family tradition, my great-grandfather, John Wes Morris, was murdered in 1881 (presumably in Floyd County) by a Mr. Stambaugh (or Stambo) ---possibly a "William" Stambaugh/Stambo. John Wes Morris was married to Susanah (Martin) Morris and at the time of his death had a 2 year old son named A.L. (Buck) Morris (my grandfather). Susanah Morris later re-married a Green Turner. I need to find ANY info. possible on the murder of my great-grandfather and the circumstances surrounding it. I would even like to hear from any descendants of Mr. Stambaugh/ Stambo (no, not to re-start any family feud -- just to compare family stories -- if any)
