The supplied form is tagged Noun · Proper in all three verses. In Genesis 46:13 and 1 Chronicles 7:1 the APB renders it within lists of Issachar’s sons; in Numbers 26:24 the APB renders the clause "Shimron, the clan of the Shimronites," identifying a clan by the same name.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name as "Shimron" in the two lists of Issachar’s sons and as "Shimron" in the clause naming the clan of the Shimronites in Numbers 26:24. The clan wording should be read as the verse’s presentation rather than a separate translation of the term.
