Hi Bill, I found Nero Shanklin listed in Valley Cemetery, Lincoln Twp, Section 16; rather than South Mound Cemetery; source is Cemetery Inscriptions of Neosho County, Kansas, 1978, p.70. Unfortunately his full dates are not listed, but perhaps the other information may be of use. I don't have obit info. Shanklin, James A., 20 May 1880 - 30 Jul 1882 Shanklin, Nero, 1827 - 1917 Shanklin, Margaret, 1833 - 1875, wife of Nero Shanklin, Margie, 27 Aug 1899 7y 2m 27d Shanklin, Homer, 15 Jul 1866 - 15 Mar 1889 Good luck, Ginger Combs ======================= > > If it is possible, would someone please do a cemetary look-up for Nero Shanklin (1827-1917).
