This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Epperson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/4kB.2ACI/1899 Message Board Post: I am a volunteer researcher for the Texas Peace Officers Memorial. Dallas Monring News (30 April 1889) reported that on 29 April 1889, 4 miles of south of Alto, Cherokee County, Prison Guard H.F. EPPERSON (Joe EPPERSON in connected article) was killed by convict named ROACH. H. F. EPPERSON was reported to be from Henderson County. I am searching for any personal information about EPPERSON - place of burial, family history, etc. I found a number of EPPERSONs in 1880 census in Henderson County but they are African Amercians.
