This is a list of Shannon obits, from this book can research others for those who might need them. Fayetteville Democrat 8/7/1869 COLEMAN, J. On Thursday morning rode into town Capt. Anderson, sheriff of Crawford Co., and Fine Shannon, U.S. Deputy Marshall, each with their posse. They had been in pursuit of the "Fisher Boys". We learn from members of their party that they had suceeded in killing two of the "Fisher Party". On Tuesday night, they surrounded a house in Lindsay's Prairie, Benton County, the "Bradshaw Place," where two of the"Fisher Party" were. On the next morning, Wednesday, they called upon these men to surrender. They were J. Coleman and R. Emondson, men who were concerned in the killing at Evansville, of Stout and Fitzwater. Coleman was the man killed Stout. At the summons to surrender one of these men came out and seeing the parties both men got their weapons and ran into an aadjoining field. The parties under Anderson and Shannon fired on them when they fell. One of them, after he fell, emptied his six-shooter at the party and attempted to fire his gun, all without effect. ( to be cont.)
