Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker

Their two years ran from February 1932 to May 1934, and they killed at least twelve people, nine of them law officers. Henry Methvin, who rode with them, saved himself by helping set the trap; he was later convicted in Oklahoma of the Campbell killing, paroled in 1942 and killed by a train in 1948. Barrow had a private funeral in Dallas on May 25 and lies in Western Heights Cemetery. More than 20,000 people came to Parker's service the next day; she lay first at Fishtrap Cemetery and was moved to Crown Hill in 1945.
