Jesse Charles Sumner, Jr. was indicted in Berrien County, Georgia. The
Grand Jury No Billed the indictment.
I am thinking that he was indicted for the murder of a Drawdy and I think
the Drawdy was the brother of his wife, Mary Ann (Polly) Drawdy. If I am
correct, the Drawdy is buried at Flat Creek Church Cemetery, Berrien
County, Georgia.
