In researching Harriett "Hattie" Kepler, born 2 Oct 1888 in Ross County, Ohio - I have information that she married Arthur Lightle in April 1909 in Ross County, Ohio. Harriett Kepler is a daughter of Emery Hall Kepler and Martha Newland.

I recently obtained the death certificate of Harriett Kepler's husband, Arthur Lightle, and uncovered a murder mystery. The death certificate states that Arthur Lightle died of "hemmorhage from the fermoral artery due to gun shot wounds. Homicidal." Place of death was listed as Paxton Township, Ross County, Ohio.

The death certificate also stated that Arthur Lightle was single although I show a marriage to Harriett Kepler on 29 Apr 1909 in Ross County, Ohio.

Does anyone have any information on this murder? Or on the family of Harriett Kepler and Arthur Lightle?

Any information appreciated.
