Descendants of Morris Shane & Phoebe Castleman
This chart represents the direct line of descent from Morris and Phoebe Castleman Shane to Grace Hale Gaugh. Therefore, while the siblings of direct ancestors are included, those siblings' own lines of descent beyond their children are not. Click on the hyperlinks for that individual's - or couple's - notes.
Shane Cemetery, the resting place of Morris, Phoebe, Cornelius, Rebecca Shane, and others, is currently in danger from the laying of a water line in Hoggett's Road. Any descendants - or simply those wishing to preserve historic sites - should contact Gloria McAbee of the Association for the Preservation of Tennessee Antiquities at buchanantree@comcast.net. The great the number of descendants who can be identified, the greater the chance of saving this pioneer cemetery.
