Murder of J. E. M. Gilliard
Santa Cruz Sentinel. July 29, 1876. LOCAL BREVITIES.
—A communication in the Missionary Record gives the particulars of the murder of J. E. M. Gilliard, in Texas.
Mr. Gilliard was an educated colored man, and for a time was employed in the Pacific Ocean House Barber Shop, and if the communication is correct the murder was a most cowardly and unprovoked affair, and Texas is a good country not to live in.
1860 Census. Stockton, San Joaquin County, California.
James Gilliard, 27 yrs. old, Color: Black, Native of Maryland, a Barber with the value of his holdings in 1860 at $850.
Wife: Charlotte Gilliard. Age: 26. Native of Mass.
Also Mary E. Jones. Age: 12. Native of Mass. |
