Yancy was listed as a detective in the 1930 census.
Yancy was a sheriff in Sour Lake, TX. My father told me the story of how his grandfather was taking a prisoner to the jail in Kountze when a mob of men overtook him and hung his prisoner by an old grader right outside of Sour Lake.
C.B.T.
(Circa 1937 Houston, TX)
