 The Case Of Robert Lee Goldsby

This Page contains information relating to the Robert Lee Goldsby Case, the cause of his arrest, indictment, conviction, and death for the murder of Mrs. Bryant Nelms on September 4, 1954, in Vaiden, Mississippi.  It is considered to be the catalyst for a later case concerning the lynching of Mack Charles Parker, of Poplarville, MS.  The information contained herein was taken from newspaper sources from the era.  Actual information from Court documents will be added as they become available.  Pictures will also be added, if they exist.  Also note that there are various inconsistencies in details reported by various sources. For example, Mr. & Mrs. Nelms' ages are listed incorrectly in these articles. He was 35 at the time of the shooting. She was 29, and was killed 2 days before her 30th birthday (Sept. 6, 1924 - Sept. 4, 1954).
