About Me
This blog was set up to document my investigation into the Lackey Murders which occured in Blanco County Texas in August, 1885. This resulted in the tragic deaths of six people, the wounding of at least two and the hanging of the perpetrator.
Kenneth Merian, a descendant of John W. Nicholson (a survivor and my Great-Great-Grandfather.). And Ellie Lackey.

Fantastic history blog! I enjoyed reading and re-reading the history.
But I have one question: Where is the sketch of the lynching penned by William Hershel Bruce, the then principal of Blanco High School?
