My great grandfather, David Fauset died on or about 10 Oct 1915 of a self inflicted
gunshot wound. I was told that this occurred at the Bowen dairy farm just outside of
Delphi. How would I get a copy of the coroner's inquest report? I am researching in
Cass and Carroll Counties. Surnames are SHAFER, FAUSET, CRONE, SUDDOTH, BERRYMAN, MYERS,
KINSEY, HARRIS.
My gggrandfather, John Shafer, died in Flora on 18 July 1912 and is buried in the
Musselman Cemetery near Flora. His son was John Quincy Shafer, daughters were Emma,
Alice, Anna Catherine and a stepson, Lee Kinsey son of Abraham Kinsey and Mary Myers.
After the death of Abraham Kinsey, Mary Myers Kinsey married John Shafer in Cass County.
I'm not sure if they lived in Carroll County. After the death of Mary, John married
again to Maria ------. Maria was born in Ashtabula Co, Ohio, her marriages were #1,
Leonard Burge, #2 Marquis Van Dyke, #3 John Shafer. Does anyone have any information on
this family? Thanks for any help you may be able to give to me. Jo Dewing,
