Notes:
By the way, Georgia has a copy of the newspaper article about Benjamin (Bush) McCraven killing his brother- in -law Burton Odell Wagner on May 21, 1928. I have learned that Bush's father George McCravens was shot when he about 40 yrs old. I don't know who was supposed to have done it, but, it was told that Bush always said that he would get the one that done it. So don't know if him shooting Burton had anything to do with the tale or not???

Lulu Mae WAGNER:
Residence: 1900, Ozark Township, Polk County, Arkansas 14
Residence: 1920, Ozark Township, Polk County, Arkansas 15
