I wish I knew more about my grandfather but he passed away long before I came along. He was a tall man that had a speech impediment and was shot by Jim Givens in his home.
They were share croppers together. Jim Givens was eating dinner with the family and did not like the way Grandpa passed a biscuit to one of his daughters. He got up and went into another room. Once in there, he called my grandfather and when grandpa entered the room, Jim shot him.
