Seeking information about Robert Campbell's death.

Checking to see if anyone on WikiTree has any documentation about the death of this Robert Campbell:  https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Campbell-29830.  I'm not a member of Ancestry.com, so wondered if anyone who reads this might be, and could possibly check for references.  As you see on his profile, some people list a very specific death date of Oct 12th, 1835 (in Missouri), but I've never found any documentation of that information.

Thanks -- all the web sites (FamilySearch, WikiTree, Ancestry, etc) show him as dying in 1835 and being buried in Beuker Cemetery in Missouri, but I haven't been able to find any proof of either the date, or the burial location.  I visited that Cemetery in September of 2021, and his gravestone was nowhere to be found (his wife's headstone is there).  I've seen the Civil War pensions before as well, but that's a bit of a mystery -- if he died in 1835, that would have been well before the Civil War started (?).
