Lizzie Borden Errors of Fact

Every so often I read an article or news story that makes me shake my head and grumble. I kvetch when an author makes inaccurate statements regarding the Borden murders of 1892. Not the small details, which most are prone to do, because unless you really study this case you might miss those tiny facts. […]

Andrew and Ann Borden

A site that gives the top ten of about every topic you can imagine, has the Borden murders on the list of Top 10 Unsolved Crimes. For such a brief mention, there are multiple errors, not the least of which includes the name of one of the murdered (Ann) and the assumption (wrong) that Lizzie’s […]

Nightwatchers at Lizzie Borden House
