On June 1, 1918, a seven member Black family was killed in Walker County,
Texas. The family's surname was CABINESS. Sarah CABINESS was the head of
the family. For some time I've been trying to learn something about the
family, but have not been too successful. I've posted contemporary
newspaper accounts of the killing on a page in my web site:

.
Also, on that page there is a link to a pdf file containing additional
information about Black Cabiness families in Walker County. I hope you will
consider downloading it and, if you know any thing about the crime, contact
me.
