You likely won't find anything. These were Civil War murders. All of the prosecutions were dropped after the war. It was about 1867 when the President granted amnesty for all Civil War crimes. There doesn't appear to be any substantive records of the crimes or their prosecutions in 1865-1866 remaining in Hawkins County.
