I am trying to find details re: the possible incarceration of one of my relatives, Forest Glen Boone.
He is listed as being a resident in the West Virginia State Prison on the 1940 census.
He would have been around 27 years old. (Born: November 13, 1913 (Sleith, Braxton County, West Virginia). 4 years later he enlisted in the Army to fight in WW 2. He died Died: May 10, 1962.
My mother and her sisters had heard their uncle spent some time in prison but never new the details or if the story of prison time was even true.
