I came across this article and wondered if any one knew of this burial

A Hoosier Listening Post by Kate Milner Rabb.
"Your story of old burying grounds," he continues, "reminds me
of a very old family burying ground on the farm of C.F. Fix, north of
Morristown in Shelby County. It is very small and very old, and the
crumbling marble slabs show that a family by the name of Means is buried
there are the "The Hoosier Schoolmaster." They are buried on a hillside,
in a rather lonely place near the center of the Fix farm."

The following is part of the oral history of my family. My grandfather, Earl Francis "Butch"Neal, member of the 150th Field Artillery, 42nd Division, served with Paul Cross in Battery E. The artillery pieces were pulled by teams of horses and part of the gun crew(which had about a dozen men) cared for them(including strapping special horse-issue gas masks in place when the poison gas attack alarm sounded!) while the others manned the gun. These duties were rotated on a regular schedule (unless the unit was under attack). In any event, either duty could be quite arduous. Can you imagine trying to keep horses calm during an artillery barrage? Grandpa said they even tried stuffing cotton in the horse's ears to help block out the noise. On 5 June 1918 in Baccarat, (Lorraine Sector), France, Butch had just returned to horse duty; when suddenly there was a huge explosion-their gun (a six-inch howitzer) had blown up; killing Paul Cross and Bernard Hurst of Shelbyville and woundin!
g Frank Roth Huntington of Decatur County. Grandpa said that part of the lanyard (rope) which, when pulled, fired the weapon, was still clutched in Paul's hand. I can't help thinking how close the school came to having the Earl Neal Gym and how my mother, Frances Evelyn would not have been born and I would not be here writing this.

Subject: Re: [INSHELBY] Index of Burials, Shelby County, Indiana - Crail,
Coil
Melinda,
Thank you for your help. Thank you also for looking up variant spellings of
Coil.
I do not know her first name. Thomas J. Crail was married first to ______
Coil and second in 1845 to Catharine Lock. _____ Coil's daughters were Saran
Ann (b. abt. 1838) and Hannah J. (b. abt. 1841), so I figure that ______
(Coil) Crail either died in 1841 or they divorced. Since the daughters are
living with Thomas in 1850, I am suspect that she died. Are you able to tell
if any of the female Coils passed away between 1841 and 1845? Thomas was in
the 1840 Addison, Shelby County, Indiana federal census. He married
Catharine Lock in Rush County. By 1850, he was in Bartholomew County,
Indiana.
I am hoping that her headstone still exists or that she had one.
Thank you.
Lee Anne

Janet,
Thank you for your help. It is sad that these children died. I'll keep these
children in mind. They would not be Thomas and ____ Coil's children, as he
remarried in 1845. They could be the children of a relative/sibling.

I'm looking for any info on the Lewis and Rachel Belveal family. They lived
in Shelby County, in the mid 1830's.
Thank you for your time.
