Cold for 30 years: Temple Hill Triple Murder From Barren County Progress On March 4, 1990, Tommie Ferrell Hale, his wife Nancy and his cousin, Kevin McClard were each shot in the back of the head three time. According to the autopsy findings, the three were shot with a 22 caliber weapon. Days passed. Glen McGuire, a neighbor to the Hale home on Happy Hollow Road near the Barren County Temple Hill community, grew concerned because he had not seen his neighbors. He discovered their lifeless bodies, and called the police. This month, it has been thirty years since the murders occurred, and although many detectives have investigated these heinous crimes, the leads followed have not been productive.

Mystery Daffodils are on Milltown Portland Road By Linda Waggener Good guesses on the location of this Daffodils on the winding road posted last week on ColumbiaMagazine.com. - Lance Bean wrote and said he believed the photo was made on the scenic "Old Highway 55 going north to Campbellsville" - Taylor County. Good guess, because that is a great road to wander. - Larry Clark got the road right when he said, "This looks like a set of curves between Milltown and Portland" - Adair County. - Tojo Phillips nailed the exact location: he wrote that they were just past Milltown Church Road on the old Billy Frank Cobb farm. He recognized it as the route he delivered dairy feed to Billy Frank in the days when he worked for Homer Goodin at M&W Milling. Thanks for guessing! I wondered when I posted the mystery photo if others would know that spot. Whenever I pass by, I always think of Nancy Cobb who lived there - the professional, kind, compassionate nurse who cared for us at Pen's birth at Adair Memorial Hospital. If you have a mystery photo from your travels, text it anytime to 270-403-0017. 2020-03-05 07:18:57 | Comments | Printable version
