We went out to the original property, though the station was only in use for about 10 years Robert sold it back to the Bank. The KTM was taken over and they discontiued the station there. I don't know if you ever figured it out but can give you the information if you would still like. My Aunt Doris said you had a book about the Keightley lineage.

McCune, in Lamonte, Mo., Aug 21st, of slow paralysis, from which he had been a great sufferer for 2 1/2 years. He was born in Holmes county, Ohio, nearly 47 years ago, and came to Missouri with his parents in 1866, locating near Dresden; from there they went to Calhoun in 1876, where he united with the Christian Church. He went to Lamonte about 10 years ago. He has one brother and four sisters living: Mrs. T.P. McCune and Mrs. G.H Hardey, at Lamonte, Mrs. J.H Light and Mrs. H.J.

The funeral services were conducted the next day at 3 p.m., at the residence, by Rev. G.E. Shanklin; the remains interred in Lamont cemetery. End As a note, T. P. McCune should have been noted as P. P. McCune. I believe there was a T. P. McCluney in the same area at the time and the author of the obit may have confused the two.
