Inmate #9311 Kansas State Prison
Rec: 6 Apr 1900
Crime: Shooting With Intent to Kill

He shot his wife through the hand and his step daughter in the left breast, both survived. He was drunk at the time.






I didn't find many documents for him but I did find City directories showing him still with his wife Eva who was a seamstress for the years 1910-1921.

I didn't find any other newspaper articles. 

I do not know when or where they died. Andrew was a farmer. There are a couple trees on Ancestry and one does have the 1900 census attached to him where he was in the state prison at that time. I made him a tree and attached the mugshot and newspaper articles so others can attach them to their trees.
