Marcum's family. I had wondered if he were a son of James S. and Mary E. Hall, and much appreciate the confirmation as well as the information about when and where he passed. I'm not related to the Marcum family; my interest lies with the shootings and eventual outcome of the Lingle case. Curiously, both the Russell County News and the Adair County News carried brief articles about the Lingle shooting and then short articles about the first trial (in Larue County in February, 1943) but nothing about the second trial or the outcome. Again, my thanks for your response.
