Her reply by email dtd: 10/22/2008 4:26:33 PM subj: Re: Mark Franklin Estate Record Transcription was as follows: Lisa, Got your phone message and I've been searching for your sheriff. The only one I can possibly come up with is James H. Perdue who was elected - or took office in 1871. If there was another one between him and Wm. Flowers in 1874, I can't find him. And I think they did serve for four years - if they weren't shot and killed by a desperado or some such.
