GUEST,Dula Cousin History: Tom Dooley didn't kill Laura Foster?!? (105* d) RE: Tom Dooley didn't kill Laura Foster?!? 10 Nov 10

I am Tom Dula's 1st Cousin 5 times removed. There are several things wrong with the post.
1) Laura and Ann are cousins, not sisters
2) "Sheriff" Grayson, wasn't sheriff, he was an Army Colonel--who now owned a farm since the confederacy had been put down.
3) Ann Foster Melton killed Laura Foster--she confessed on her death bed, but it was TOO late for Tom so it's been hush, hush...except in local circles!
I am glad that Tom's story is still being told and still intrigues people! You are more than welcome to email me for more information at
