EBER SHIFFLET
The Atchison Daily Globe, Atchison, Ks, Fri, Mar. 19, 1926
Heart Disease Fatal to Civil War Veteran, Old Atchison Resident. Death came suddenly to Eber Shifflet, Civil war veteran, early this morning. As he was reclining on a davenport at his home, 1407 South Eighth street, shortly after 6:30 o’clock, he collapsed, and when his wife reached his side, he was dead. Physicians said death was due to heart trouble. Mr. Shifflet had been feeling ill for only a few days before he passed away. Last Tuesday night he complained of a pain in his side, but Wednesday it had apparently disappeared. Yesterday he weakened again, and last night fainted in his room. He passed a restless night, and this morning arose shortly after 4 o’clock. He had not been in the best of health, since he was run down by an automobile at Fifth and Commercial streets last September 20. Eber Shifflet was a splendid citizen, and very well known. He was active in Baptist church circles, and despite his age was a faithful member of the Baptist choir. He sang at the church last Sunday. Three years ago Mr. Shifflet was retired from the mail service, after more than twenty years as a rural route carrier out of the Atchison post office. He moved to Atchison from Whiting about thirty years ago, and for a number of years served as a justice of the peace. Mr. Shifflet was born in Bureau county, Ill., April 1, 1844. He enlisted early in the Civil war, and served throughout that conflict. After the war he returned to Bureau county, and was married to Miss Elizabeth Sconner. They farmed there for three years and then moved to near Whiting, Kans., where they lived on a farm for a short time before Mr. Shifflet entered the dry goods business in Whiting. Fifteen years ago Mrs. Shifflet died here. Five years later Mr. Shifflet married Miss Annie Ache, who survives him. Mr. and Mrs. Shifflet had no children, but about a week ago they adopted little Robert Rayfield. Two brothers survive: Will Shifflet, 927 North Seventh street, and Cyrus Shifflet, of Delano, Calif. A sister, Mrs. Peachy Hipple, lives in Hutchison. As a soldier in the Union army, Mr. Shifflet, had a varied experience. He enlisted in Company B of the 57th Illinois Infantry, and served for three months, re-enlisting in the same organization for the duration of the war. He was a sergeant. At the battle of Corinth he was severely wounded, bullets piercing both legs. For three days he was listed as missing, until his brother, Will Shifflet, who was a member of the same company, found him unconscious and almost dead, in a cellar. With the help of other soldiers, Will Shifflet carried his brother to the regimental relief station, and from there he was sent back to Bureau county to recover from his injuries. Within two months Eber Shifflet was back with his company, and served with it throughout the war, marching with Sherman to the sea, and participating in several important engagements. At the close of the war, the Shifflet brothers were discharged at Louisville, Ky., and the company was later mustered out at Chicago. Mrs. Shifflet had not decided this afternoon as to the time of the funeral services. As soon as word arrives from the family, the time will be announced. NOTE: I think the Cyrus listed in this obit is actually Silas Leroy Shiflett.

She was also preceded in death by her parents, Robert Morris and Mabel Hicks Morris of Crozet; and two brothers, Alton "Tom" Morris of Charlottesville and Junior Morris of Crozet. We called her Grandma E, Grandmother E or Granny - Gran. She will be missed, but we know she has moved on to a better place. Grandma E led a full life while with us. She touched each of us in her own way. We were very fortunate to share many holidays, special events, meals and snacks with her. We have laughed with her and we have cried with her. We have shopped with her and we have vacationed with her. Later in life she developed a love for shoes and purses which is shared with her granddaughters and great-granddaughters. She would sometimes surprise us with what she said-be it a statement to make us laugh or a fact she shared from over 50 years ago. Grandma E is survived by two daughters and sons-in-law; Delois and Agnew Morris of Crozet and Opal and Delmas Shifflett of Boonesville. She had four granddaughters and one grandson, Suzette and Steve Kempler of Columbia, Maryland, Lisa and Tom Moorer of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Kristie Morris of Crozet, Valerie and Albert "Ski" Bates of Lynchburg, Virginia, and Jason and Megan Shifflett of Crozet. She was a great-grandmother to four, Erica and Alex Kempler of Maryland and Lyndsay and Jordon Moorer of Oklahoma. Grandma E is survived by a sister, a brother and two sisters-in-law, Doris Roach of Crozet, Alvin "Noots" and Viola Morris of Charlottesville, and Gladys Morris of Crozet. We would like to express our heartfelt appreciation to Mary Ann Gibson, 'The Lead Lady,' and the staff at Gibson's Adult Care Home in Crozet. We could not have found a better place for her to spend the last few years. Grandma E thought of it as home and enjoyed living there. We would also like to express our appreciation to the Hospice of the Piedmont for their services these last weeks. Pallbearers are Jason Shifflett, Steve Kempler, Alex Kempler Albert 'Ski' Bates, Kenneth Roach, Ray Brubeck, Ronnie Page, and Scott Byram. Family night will be from 6 until 8 p.m. Friday, August 24, 2007, at the Anderson Funeral Home Chapel. A funeral service will be held 1 p. m, Saturday, August 25, 2007, at the Crozet Baptist Church.
