The cell from the Floyd County jail was purchased in 1969 by a group of Seymour citizens and donated to the City of Seymour. The Visitor Center has been given the cell on loan to display.

Tina, I heard the cell was rusting away in some field, but could not find where. Is the cell going to be installed back in Floyd Co?

I am very interested in stories or photographs of the Renos. We will soon be installing the cell from the New Albany, Indiana jail were the four members were removed and hung.

The half sister of my grandfather married a Charles Love who moved with his parents and wife to Coffey Kansas and was murdered in 1870. There was a question whether he had fled because of involvment with the vigilante lynch group and was perhaps murdered in retribution. Does anyone have any comments on this? C Dannettel-Biederman
