Lilly Irons, Shackles, Ball & Chains

[RJNorton]

Ron Spitz sent the following:

"A few comments about the responses received. We also found references to the harpoon and were not able to find any connection with our subject. There were many articles about the Lilly shackles after the war. Most of them were referring to the methods of punishment and keeping order amongst the troops.

The information we found was sent the the cemetery and they conducted their own research and came up with a bio which included just about everyone with the name of Lilly. Since they had only limited resources their research was not as refined as ours. An organization that deals with grave monuments for the military was also contacted, so maybe some day their will be one."
