I was wondering if you could help me find information on Harrison Young who died May 8 1925 and was buried in Westveiw Cemetery.
He died in Mount Pleasant at the mental hospital where he was committed due to his leadership role with the local KKK, there was news articles and pictures of his funeral where there was 1,500 Klansman walking behind the Hurst.
I am looking for his obituary or any pictures that were in the newspapers from that event.
The Young families lived in Highland Township and Highland Center from 1882 on.
Thanks for your help.
