Biography
Samuel Timothy Nash was a twenty-four-year-old part-time United States Postal Service employee and traveled from Montgomery and was arrested at the Jackson Trailways terminal on June 21, 1961 — one of the arrests recorded by the Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission and preserved in the Civil Rights Digital Library. The catalog establishes the arrest, the participation, and the individually identified police photograph, but not the court disposition, any transfer to Parchman, or the physical release date; those fields are unresolved pending county-jail, court, or penitentiary records.
The catalog metadata misspells his middle name as Thimothy.
