    3. Thanks for sharing that with the board/list. I grew up in Lenoir, which is in Western NC for those of you who aren't familiar with NC. My grandparents and all of their generation knew about Tom, Laura, and Ann. I wonder if the truth will ever be known. I did find something in my genealogy research that told of Ann's father having confided in his best friend that Ann had killed Laura. Her father was up in years, and he told this friend that he didn't want to take that secret to his grave. I sure wish I could find that again!!
