Milas Monroe Wishon
Born January 4, 1868
Died December 20, 1950
Buried Low Gap Cemetery

There is one error in the obituary of Milas Monroe Wishon. In the survivors it has two daughters, Ersie Russell and Nellie Frances Lackey. Ersie Pearl Villines Russell was born March 20, 1891 and died about 1916 and is buried in a cemetery just outside of Kingston, AR and I do not know which one. Ersie Pearl first married Frank Villines (the one of These Hills my Home) and they had one son, Clyde and he is buried in Idaho. Ersie Pearl's mother was Caroline Eoff Wishon.
