- According to my Grandfather, Ulysses Clayton Dugger, who was William M Dugger's son, and William Dugger's grandson, his grandfather's middle initial was 'A'. Ulysses Clayton Dugger also told me that his grandfather was murdered in the early 1860's during the Civil war, because he witnessed the murder of a man by a group of hooded men (he referred to them as clansmen) in a dispute over the sale of horses to a black man. According to Ulysses Clayton Dugger, he was murdered on his front porch in front of his son William M Dugger, a boy of around 7 at the time, and Ulysses Clayton Dugger's father, who told the story to my grandfather. Although the KKK had not yet been formed, there were precursor groups of southern sympathizers in Kentucky at the time, know to have committed violence against blacks and anyone helping or otherwise sympathizing with blacks.
