I found the following article in the Wichita Daily Times dated 6-25-1922. Headline:Two More Arrested In Connection With Death of Woman, Houston, Texas, June 24. Story: "Two more arrests were made in connection with the death of Mrs. Jerry McShan, whose badly decomposed body was found at her home near Cleveland (Texas), Sunday afternoon. Todays arrest brings the total of men being held in the case to 3. J. H. Bloodsworth, 60, farmer, living near Cleveland, is being held in the Liberty County jail following testimony of the 3 year old child of Mrs. McShan who was an eye witness to the murder. The crime was one of the most revolting in the history of the state. After crushing the woman's skull and beating her almost beyond recognition the assailants fled leaving the woman's 3 year old and the other child (7 months old) lying on a bed beside the dead body of their mother. When found, the children's bodies were badly swollen from insect bites and they are in serious condition from lack of food."

Could this be the first wife of Jerry McShan...Annie Burkett? I just don't know. Does anyone out there know who this is?
