Harpe Brothers: O' Killers Where Art Thou?
The Harpe brothers lived the lives of highwaymen, also engaging in river piracy and serial killing. The legend of their atrocities survives as one of the most disturbing accounts of blood-lust in Tennessee history. Loyal to the British Crown during the American Revolution, the Harpes became outlaws after the war and began robbing and killing settlers in the remote frontier west of the Appalachian Mountains. They are believed to have killed thirty-nine people, and possibly as many as fifty. As the Harpes' crimes gained notoriety, vigilante groups formed to avenge their victims, and they were eventually tracked down and executed around the turn of the century. Their savagery has since entered American folklore, appearing to have been motivated more by blood lust than financial gain. The Harpe brothers hold the distinction of being the "earliest documented serial killers in the United States history."
