• Notes

  Facts are: After divorcing Uncle Mike S. N. Hennessee, Fay May married Jim Hennessee, known as Jim "Peck". They lived in Lawton just South of Lee Blvd. Jim Hennessee had a brother Tar Hennessee. Jim Peck came home one night and found Fay May in bed with Frank Reynolds. Fay May and Frank Reynolds were found dead and both had been shot. Jim Peck pled guilty and was sentenced with life in Prison. He died in McAlister Prison in Oklahoma and is buried there. Fay May Hennessee and Frank Reynolds do have the same date of death on their tomb stones and they are buried just 4 rows from each other at Pecan Cemetery just South of Lawton Oklahoma. Tar Hennessee is buried there also. Story goes: That Jim Peck made and sold whisky at his house. Due to the whisky, many men came by the house when Fay May was home alone. Although Jim Peck pled guilty and died in prison, it has been said that his brother Tar Hennessee actually killed Frank Reynolds. Due to the age of Tar and his poor health, Jim Peck pled guilty.
