Loving Wife To Eli Cowan . Daughter Of Robertus Love & Avorilla Herrill Moore. Mother Of Robert Lee Cowan. My 2 X Great Grandmother.....One Night Her Husband Eli Was Hung When The Black Night Riders Came To Their Home To Still Gold That Sophronia Had. They Kept The Gold Under Their Feather Bed. They Tried To Get Information Out Of Sophronia, But She Would Not Tell Them Where The Gold Was. The Black Night Riders Mistakened Sophronia For A Little Girl Because She Was Such A Small Lady And Left Her Alone. The Black Night Riders Hung My 2 X Great Grandfather Eli And Moved On. As Small As Sophronia Was She Managed To Cut Eli Down. Eli Lived Through This. This Story As Told By Peyton Heady Of Morganfield, Kentucky.
