I am seeking information on my great, great grandfather, Manual J. SPOON. He was born in 1918, and a casualty of the Korean War. He was married to ______ YOUNT. Any information on Manual Spoon or his ancestors would be appreciated. Thanks!

Melissa,My grandfather was Manuel N. (1883-1966) and he was married to Ema Yount - who died in 1918 - six weeks after the birth of their fourth son - also named Manuel . He was a casualty of the Korean War. And believe he is buried in the Knoxville Military Cememtery. Manuel N. is buried in osceola cem. Along with his mother and father Amy L.(1856-1918) and William W. (1840-1920). There is a Merle & Ema Spoon also buried there. Merle was the oldest son. I am interested in 'Ema Yount Spoon' place of burial -- in Ill. I believe?

Manuel Spoon was my grandfathers brother, my grandfather was Birtie, I knew Manny Jr. when I was young. I can tell you some of the family history if you like. Dee
