Lynching Beyond Dixie
, no, I can't find access to the entire book, and looks like interlibrary loans aren't available at present. However, I looked at the table of contents and I think the only chapter that would apply to Ohio is ch. 7, "Race, Sex, and Riot: The Springfield, Ohio, Race Riots of 1904 and 1906 and the Sources of Antiblack Violence in the Lower Midwest", which is available online. I've also been thinking about scope. Are we creating an article "Lynching in Ohio", inclusive of victims of all races, or "Lynching of African Americans in Ohio"? I was also thinking we could have a sortable table for the victims, with the possibility that some events/individuals could be independently notable and also have separate articles. Bill Terry, for example, is probably independently notable as the first lynching victim in Ohio. I've also begun clipping some newspapers with my Newspaper.com account, here.

 * , oh, very cool, good find! I had been thinking about lynching in Ohio rather than lynching of blacks, as apparently many non-blacks were included as "white," and some that modern readers would assume were white were included as "Italian" in some places. The American Lynching book apparently covers that, plus includes some extralegal killings that the Monroe & Florence Work information did not include because their requirements for inclusion were narrow. —valereee (talk) 17:31, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * , the clippings about Terry are interesting. The first one, from the Wyandott Pioneer, says at the end that it's from the Cleveland Herald, which I believe was a black newspaper. Most of the clippings seem to be condemning the lynching. —valereee (talk) 16:44, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
 * , also the story was reprinted in the New York Times, which would also make the case for independent notability, as non-local coverage. Not sure about the Cleveland Herald. This does identify it as an African American publication, but it says it started in 1925, so it is probably a different paper by the same name. Enwebb (talk) 17:07, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

Lynching and Mob Violence in Ohio, 1772-1938
I have that library book now. Not including the back appendices, it's 200 pages, so I'm not sure the best way to share it with you? I do have a scanner, but it's a regular scanner, so I'm not sure how long it would take to scan that many pages. Maybe there's a specific chapter or two you'd want?
