Pioneer farmer and Civil War veteran laid to rest
An obituary recalls the life of a Knox County Missouri resident born in Kentucky in 1845. He moved to Indiana and later to Missouri with his parents, amassed fertile farmland, and became a respected farmer and bank official. He served in the Missouri State Militia and the 42nd Missouri Volunteer Infantry, held township offices, and supported the Farmers Bank of Unionville. Surviving family includes his wife Mary Shelton and five children. A telegram of thanks follows the funeral.
