Plot 185: Joseph Belanski

Joseph Belanski was born in Poland in 1896. He later immigrated to the United States and worked as a farmhand at the farm of William and Stacia Stefanowicz in Stow, Massachusetts. Mr. Belanski likely suffered from epilepsy, according to the Middlesex County physician, Dr. William H. Clancy.

Mr. Belanski was incarcerated in the Massachusetts State Prison after his conviction in November 1930. Authorities executed him by electrocution on October 20, 1931, at 35.
