I grew up in West Tennessee and for a period of time one of JWB's descendants was a classmate. She was very, very sensitive about her ancestor's notoriety. Did you or have you considered reaching out to any of JWB's descendants to get their take on how over a century later their lives have been affected?
Edit: "Descendant" may not be the most accurate term; she was from the Booth family and carried the surname.
