I have additional, although somewhat one-sided info about Frankie Stewart Silver's
escape from jail. It involves my Parker family.
My great great grandfather's older sister, Rebecah Parker, had a son by an unknown father. His name was Thelston or Felston Parker. He went by his mother's maiden name, for his surname. In a series of one sided letters sent from George Adolphus Parker to Lily Doyle Dunlap, it apoears that Thelston Parker was responsible for helping Frankie to escape from jail on a borrowed horse. He was not caught, and went to stay with his aunt, Penelope Parker Martin to hide from the law.
Evidently he and his mother were either friends or family of Frankie, and felt she was not guilty of the crime she was accused of, or at least had just cause for her action. It appears a small black boy at a cotton mill spilled the beans, so to speak about this
activity. Poetree1948 (talk) 15:59, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
