I am a gr granddaughter of Emma Frances "Fannie" Hale Acuff whose sister Vesta was married to Victor Hillis. I may have asked this question before but I don't think I ever got an answer..or perhaps I missed the answer.

Masked Men Took William and Victor Hillis from the County Jail and Hung Them at Shellsford Between 12 and 1 o'clock last Saturday night a band of about fifteen masked men rode quietly to town and proceeded to the Jail, where they demanded of Jailor James Earles the delivery to them of William and Victor Hillis. Mr. Earles at first refused to deliver the keys, but the men seemed so determined to have the parties wanted that he thought resistance useless and foolish and handed the keys over to them. The mob then went to the cell in which the prisoners were confined and took charge of them. One of the prisoners attempted to defend himself with a bed slat, but was soon overpowered and the two brothers, partly clad, were mounted on horses, riding behind some of the party, and the cavalcade moved orderly and noiseless out of town.

There was a Carroll Martin who lived in Van Buren County, TN. He came from Rock Island, TN. He was murdered. Check Van Buren County Newspaper or court records. He was murdered by the Hillis brothers & I believe they were hung in Warren county, Tn. I know I read that somewhere. Carol

Mary's maiden name was Cantrell, I believe, making them cousins or some other relation. I think her parents were Benjamin Cantrell and Charity Legat (daughter of John Legate). I have seen references to a Green Cantrell being the child of Isaac Cantrell and Mary Linder - making Green Mary's uncle, but that is not substantiated, and he could be a Green named after an earlier generation. They had a child, Peter Horrey Cantrell, who lists them as parents when his wife (Elizabeth Purser) applied for pension from the Civil War. He is my direct relation.

It makes since that Mary Purser would probably be Elizabeth's mother. I don't believe "Aunt Mary Cantrell" ever married. She died in the 1950's in McMinnville, TN. You've probably had this question answered by now, but just wanted to let you know. I am searching for Peter's parents, Mary and Green Cantrell, but there seems to be no information on either.
