Ann Orr Morris, a 63-year-old silversmith, goldsmith and enamelist from Athens, Georgia, was one of three women killed in a violent attack on August 15, 1987. Morris, her sister Sally Nathanson, and Nathanson’s 22-year-old adopted daughter Helen were found after Morris’s husband reported her missing. The murders occurred in Nathanson’s home in the Carr’s Hill neighborhood and were carried out with a hatchet.

The attacker was 16-year-old Clinton Bankston Jr., an Athens resident who had already killed two retired University of Georgia professors in April 1987 during a burglary. Bankston was arrested for the Athens killings, pleaded guilty but mentally ill, and received five consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole for the five murders.

Does anyone have memories of Ann Morris, her work in metals and enamel, or information about the Carr’s Hill neighborhood in 1987 that could add context to this case?
