Dorothy and Thelma, I will be in Macksburg soon and plan to go out to Moon Cemetery south of town - I will look for a marker for Wm. M. Shoemaker. My William Wright was not the spouse of Annette Shoemaker. He married once, to Clarissa Hasty, and they are buried in Bedford, IA. He was a civil war veteran of the 4th IA Infantry. Good hunting, Doug P.S. If I find info for you in Moon Cemetery, I will post it on the list for you.
