PA State Police Hunting a Killer: The 1919 Double Murder in Cly, York County PA.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лют 2025
- In 1919, a gruesome double murder was discovered in the railroad town of Cly, York County Pennsylvania (Newberry Township). The resulting investigation would lead to a manhunt through Pennsylvania, Ohio and Kentucky, a Postal Clerk to commit suicide and the death of a Pennsylvania State Trooper. A State Police Investigator would end up under attack by mountain men in Kentucky.
***Corrections:
The York and Cumberland Railroad was completed in 1851, not 1830 like I mentioned.
As of October 2023, I cannot locate any information confirming the burial grounds under the Riverside Village or the house allegedly burning 3 times, other than the mention of this on the Northern York County History and Preservation page linked below. I did reach out to that site owner requesting further information.

This was excellent. Bringing obscure local history to life!
I live in between york haven and cly. Was searching for the history of york haven factories and stumbled upon your channel. Now I'm binging every video. Keep up the great work. 👍
Hello! Thank you and welcome to the channel. Let me know if you have any interesting stories about the area history.
This was FANTASTIC! Kept my interest peaked the whole time. Riveting storytelling. Love the side note at the end. That whole 1990’s town is stuck in a poltergeist situation 😮😳
Thanks a lot Gene! That is a crazy story. The more I dug into it, the crazier it got. And yeah definitely a poltergeist situation going on over there lol.
I never knew any of this.. Really well done. Loved the history here. I found myself glued to the screen. Love the way you do this. So glad I subbed back to you. Honestly, this was amazingly well done.
Thank you!!
What a great video! Lot's of relevant, cool imagery. Several local-to-me places of interest: Declining Cly, that Old York Jail . . Excellent research on this one! What a dreary delight!
Thanks a lot Dave! That was actually one of my favorites to create. Crazy story.
Wow I went through Cly once and had no idea. I used to go to York Haven a lot for my church group.
Great story! I have been through Cly many times. I live in Wrightsville.
Another great video. Dont mess with them mountain folks. I ran into very strange people in western North Carolina back in early 1978. Very uncomfortable. Left quietly and quickly. They just stared, it was creepy.
Haha thanks Brad. Yeah I definitely need to experience Western NC soon.
Another great video! As a fellow York Countian, I really appreciate your content. Keep up the great stories!
Thank you Ted!
Geez!! What a run of crazy events!
Yeah really! The more I looked onto it, the crazier it got lol.
Very interesting. Have read this before on a local history blog. However, I live in Riverside Development and have since 1998, and there has been no house that burned down 3 times. When I moved here, there were only 4 houses, and none burned the whole time I have been here.
Interesting. I got that information from the Northern York County preservation page. There is a link to it in the description of this video. I will have to look into that a little deeper. Thanks for the info.
@runningintohistory The only other thing I csn think of would be if it would have happened before the Riverside Development was built . But I was under the impression that this was a field before that. Or it happened in the development next to Riverside
I will definitely look into it to see what I can find. So far I don't see anything about it in old newspaper archives.
The house burn is from en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Cly,_Pennsylvania&action=history
Yes Ney chip is where I read it. But I have been in Riverside since there were only 4 houses here. There hasn't been a house in the Riverside Development that has burned up. There was a fire at a house in Susquehanna village next to Riverside that burned right before we moved here. To my knowledge the house only burned once.
Amazing video, it's the fellow York co folks here again. Thank you for these awesome videos! Never knew of this story! Wow! 😮
Thank you! This is a crazy story.
Awesome story .
I live right down the road from York Haven and very much appreciate your quality video's!
@@dlschleigjr thank you!
Grew up in York County and never heard of Cly.
What are the odds of a house burning down 3 times? It had to have been arson.
Or poltergeists lol
Great story I live 15 mins away and never heard about this I always go fishing In York haven
I never knew about that until now since you made a video talking about it and I live in riverside development on cly road and I’m getting ready to go down there where you were where you found some ruins in the ground on that trail and make a video talking about it I walked past that area for years and didn’t know it seems a lot of weird murders took place around my area in the past thanks for making this video
This is a crazy story.
I live close to 252 W. College and always realized it was a grand building, but I did not realize it was the original York hospital as it is now an apartment complex.
I was surprised too when I figured it out.
New subscriber. Great channel.
@@AmericaWorker100 thank you! And welcome to the channel!
@@runningintohistoryThanks.
