I've been following your Young Trial message. I'm having trouble tracing my Young's. Much of what you said is similar to our family names and places. My ggrandfather was Jacob Monroe (Jake) Young and he was married to Susan Armetha Cryer. The Cryer's have married into many families including the Young's, Looney's, Jackson's, McDonald's, Eldridge's, and Anglin's. Many of these family members are buried in the Willis Cemetery in Marshall County. Jake's father, Thomas J. Young left his wife, Susan C. Roberts and moved to Texas where he established another family--which little is known about. This is about all we have on the Young's. If any of this seems familiar to you, please contact me privately and I can give the rest of my limited details. Thanks for the info that you have already added.

Hello list, I've had a request for information regarding the Brooken Cemetery. I believe this will be Haskell county. Some time ago, I found a site that had a very large list of cemeteries that had been moved during the building of Eufala Lake. This cemetery may have been included in this list. Can anyone tell me what this address may have been? I have no idea where I found it. Vickie Neill Taylor

Criminal Case 1913 Book 1 page 477 case #475 Fort Towson Enterprise Dec 8, 1911 pg. 4 Killing at Spencerville. J.J. Young, a prominent and highly respected farmer of the Spencerville community, was shot and killed Monday afternoon by Will Willburn while the former was going home in his wagon alone. An old grudge is said to have been the cause of the killing. Wilburn was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Pink Anderson and lodged in jail. The following list is a list of witnesses called on behalf of the State, to prove allegations of the information charging Will Wilburn and W.M. Hullinger with the murder of J.P. Young. Wilburn was arrested January 5, 1912. During the examining trial on January 11, 1912, both pleaded not-guilty. Wilburn tried to get out on bail by saying being enclosed in a jail cell with loud noise was bad on his health since he had lived his life on the farm. Request denied. The trail began at 9 a.m. March 27, 1912. Hullinger was acquitted. I believe he had an alibi. Wilburn was found guilty by all 12 jurors (J.W. Davis - Foreman) and sent to the State Penitentiary in McAlester, April 6, 1912. P.C. Anderson Ft. Towson A.J. Harris Unknown R.M. Broadhead Idabel L.W. Oaks Hugo Tom Brannon Spencerville Mrs. A.J.

Witnesses for the defendants: J.H. Maynard Belzonia Will Maynard Belzonia W.C. Self Rattan Pete Williams Corrine Fort Towson Enterprise Apr 5, 1912 pg. 1 Willburn Gets Life The jury in the case of Will Willburn assessed his punishment at life in the penitentiary. The case was hard fought by both the prosecution and the defense, and the jury was out with the case many hours. The crime for which Willburn will serve the balance of his natural life in the state penitentiary is the murder of John Young on the evening of Dec 8, last. Young, who had been to Fort Towson, was returning home in his wagon, and when near his home at Spencerville a man stepped from behind a tree and emptied the contents of a double-barreled shotgun into him. Young was found in the road and carried to his home where he lived for several hours. Before he died he made a post mortem statement that Willburn was the man who did the shooting, and that he saw and recognized him as he stepped out in the road. Willburn was arrested on this statement and brought to Hugo and placed in jail. A few days after his arrest, he refused to eat, trying to starve himself to death before he came to trial. The killing was caused by a feud, which had existed between the two men for sometime. There were a large number of witnesses in the case. The whole Spencerville neighborhood, nearly, was summoned in the case. It was proved that Willburn had made many statements concerning Young, which had great weight with the jury.
