Eugene F Shackford, the son of Eugene Dellmont and Eva Mable (Flood) Shackford was born Oct 18, 1918 in Springvale, Maine. He only lived for 15 days and died on Nov 3 1918 in Springvale. His death record states his cause of death was asphyxia with a contributing cause of gastritis with vomiting.
Eugene was buried on Nov 5, 1918 in the Hope Cemetery in Kennebunk, Maine.
This was the second child that this family lost — their daughter Beulah May who was just a year old died on Dec 5, 1917. We hope this small blog helps memorialize these young children.

and Mrs Eugene Shackford,
