• Notes

  Biography James Bunch and his family, including son Emanuel, lived across the river in the area that is now Normac Estates. The Bunch's were strong Union supporters. Bad blood boiled between Richard Laughlin and Emanuel Bunch as a result of the two families divergent war sentiments, and on November 21, 1873, while on his way to the Forest Grove School, Richard was attacked by Emanuel Bunch and hit in the head with a rock that resulted in his death. The attack would have taken place somewhere in the area around #15 tee. Emanuel Bunch was ultimately convicted of 2nd degree manslaughter and served 2 years in the penitentiary. His father, James, was also charged but was found not guilty. About a year before the murder, Richard's sister Narcissa Laughlin had married Emanuel Bunch's brother, Isaac, which surely made for a case of strange bedfellows following the murder. 1870 United States Federal Census, Camden Co., Missouri July 2, 1870 Bunch, James, age 40, male, white, farmer, value of real estate: 400, value of personal estate: 684, b: Tennessee, could not read & write, is a citizen Bunch, Jane, age 45, female, white, keeping house, b: Kentucky, could not read & write Bunch, David, age 20, male, white, farm laborer, b: Illinois, not attending school, could not read & write Bunch, Isaac, age 18, male, white, farm laborer, b: Illinois, not attending school Bunch, Emma, age 16, female, white, b: Illinois, not attending school, could read, could not write, Bunch, Manuel, age 15, male, white, b: Illinois, could not read & write Bunch, Josephine, age 10, female, white, b: Kansas Bunch, William, age 5, male, white, b: Illinois 1880 United States Federal Census, Osage, Camden Co., Missouri, District 41 June 17 & 18, 1880 Bunch, Jas., white, male, age 50, married, farmer, could not read & write, b: Virginia, parents b: Virginia Bunch, Jane, white, female, age 52, wife, married, housekeeper, could not read & write, b: Kentucky, parents b: Kentucky Bunch, Josie, white, female, age 18, daughter, single, at home, b: Kansas Bunch, Willie, white, male, age 15, son, single, b: looks like Illinois Source Source: #S-2076851630 Page: Ancestry Family Trees Note: Data: Text: http://trees.ancestry.com/pt/AMTCitationRedir.aspx?tid=3981952&pid=962852312 Source: #S-2076851630 Page: Ancestry Family Trees Note: Data: Text: http://trees.ancestry.com/pt/AMTCitationRedir.aspx?tid=3981952&pid=962852312 Find A Grave: Memorial #7511280 Source S-2076851630 Repository: #R-1645048415 Title: Ancestry Family Trees Publication: Online publication - Provo, UT, USA: Ancestry.com.
