Elmer Shackow.. Born Sullivan County Indiana.. 12-12- 1883 = Oct 1964 Hood River Oregon.
Do you have any family by the following names and dates?
Robert Shackow 7-1-1844 and Mary Shackow 6-30-1849 and they are buried in Clear Spring Meshak Cemetery in Choctaw OK.
Sister Elsie is also buried there, she died at a young age.
It appears my great grandfather migrated to Oklahoma from Indiana after my grandfather was born. But before Indiana, I have no idea.
I suspect that at one point the Shackow spelling had been altered from something else.
Thanks for your time
Linda
