Thieves came and hung this couple. Their daughter Polly (Pauline?) escaped into the night. Polly later married Joel T KING who was born in Tennessee in 1852. Joel and Polly had a son, Robert E Lee "Jack" KING and a daughter Lena. Joel later wound up in Oklahoma from 1895 through 1930 married to Arie O Cornell. Roy C KING, son of Robert E Lee "Jack" KING was born in McKinney about 1910. Does anyone have information on the MYERSKY family or the KING family? Where might I find info about the murder? Thank you. John King
