Lynching of Dan Anderson

Dan Anderson was an African-American man who was murdered in Macon, Mississippi, on May 20, 1927 at the age of 32.[1][2] Anderson's father and grandfather had also been lynched.[3]

On May 15, 1927, Anderson was accused of killing T. C. Edwards, a white farmer from Cliftonville, Mississippi. Anderson allegedly ambushed and shot Edwards as he was approaching a tenant house on the property. The rifle used in the shooting was supposedly hidden by one of Anderson's friends, and was found in a chicken coop. Anderson had been a tenant at the Edwards farm preceding the alleged murder. He was arrested in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. A mob of 300 to 500 men overtook Noxubee County sheriff T. B. Adams and took Anderson to the woods, firing more than 200 bullets into his body.[4]
