Lincoln's obituary from a local newspaper reads as follows: "Mr. Lincoln Gatewood died at his home three miles north of Palmersville last Friday morning a 8 o'clock, after a two week's illness with pneumonia. Mr. Gatewood was twenty years and four months old, was a sober young man of fine character and will be sadly missed by his many friends. He leaves a wife who has our sympathy in her bereavement. We know that the aged have to pass away, but it makes us doubly sad when we see the young snatched away in the bloom of youth."
He is believed to have been buried in the Palmersville Cemetery with other family members, but there is no record.
