Biography

In the fall of 1827, three men, Jim, 28, Harry, 22 and Bill, 24, escaped from Fayette County enslaver, John Atchison. Jim was described as about 5'10" tall with large whiskers. It was suspected that Jim, who could read and write, may have forged passes for all three. It was thought they would head for the road to Carolina. A "handsome reward" would be given for their return.
