The Criminal Genealogist
The Criminal Genealogist - where true crime and genealogy intersect! The records don't lie but your ancestors might...Ever researched your ancestors only to find that naughty one who couldn't stay out of trouble? We love those stories! Criminal ancestors are the best to research because they usually have a lot of records and newspaper articles about their dirty deeds. Join me as I talk about criminal ancestors you have shared with me or I came across in my research.

This is the story of John Mitchell - a man who was well respected in his community and one of the early settlers. So what happened that fateful day when a young boy was shot and killed for stealing fruit from John's tree? Was this the same John Mitchell who was a pillar community or could there have been multiple John Mitchell's living in Pleasant Valley, PA in the 1876?
