Josh Lawrence, who also lived on Carroll's Creek, shortly after Lauderdate was massacred, was out one damp, foggy morning, a short distance from his house, searching for the milk cows. He was also murdered by Indians. Lawrence was scalped, and buried in the Carroll's Creek Graveyard. The above story is from the book, The West Texas Frontier, by Joseph Carroll McConnell. We received the following e-mail from a visitor who provided us with the following story of a massacre that happened very close to this area.
