WILLIAM HINKLE and ESTHER (Schoen/Shoen)/Shane Hinkle Horn move to Aurora, Lawrence County, Missouri from Jeddo, Luzerne Co, PA. Esther may have moved there earlier with Harvey Shane and wife Rachel Waters, from Indiana, with someone else, or her body was taken to Aurora, MO for burial. She is buried exactly seventeen feet due East of the flagpole of the Old Aurora Cemetery on the North half, 1st burial, 1st row. Then measure four inches due North. There will be a 4 inch x 6 inch concrete stub of where her stone was, usually covered with grass. findagrave Old Aurora City Cemetery, Lawrence Co, MO, bio.

I didn't find Esther in the very poor quality 1870 Census of Lawrence Co, MO. She could have been living with someone else.
