Notes
a. Note:   Death Certificate, #2920, District #147. Mesa County, State of Colorado. Obituary: "Lillian F. Skinner, by Divine providence, was called to her heavenly home away from the suffering and trials of life on March 5 at 2 am. Lillian Fl Hobart was born in East Bloomfield, Ontario County, New Youk, on August 15, 1854, and removed when six years old with her parents to Minnesota, where she lived but a very few months, moving from there with her parents to Burroak, Iowa. Here she grew to womanhood. When but a small girl she united with the Congregational church being a constant and faithful member ever since. On September 21, 1879 she was united in marriage to S. C. Skinner of Spencer, Iowa, to which place she moved with her husband at the time. To this union were born five children: Courtland H., Charles H., David Henry, Nina B. and Robert Clark Skinner. Courtland H. and Charles H Skinner now reside at Hagerman, Idaho. David Henry Skinner, a seaman of the United States Navy, died August 19, 1905 at Cavite, Phillipine Islands. Nina B. Milholland resides at Molina, CO and Robert Clark at Plateau City, CO. All of the surviving children together with her husband were present at her bedside when she passed away. Mrs Skinner was a constant sufferer of asthma for 38 years, which finally resulted in her death. Her ill health deprived her of doing many useful and helpful things which she longed to do for her Master. She was always patient and cheerful through all her suffering, being the light and sunshine of her home. She was a true and loving wife and mother always having a good word for everyone. No good cause passed her without receiving her support. Throughout her life of suffering she constantly found the good in everthing and everybody and overlooked their faults. There never was a cloud so dark but what she could see the silver lining having divine faith in her Master, dying as she lived, faithful and true christian. The funeral was held Monday at 10 am . . . Rev K.M.Isaacs conducting impressive services. Beautiful songs, consoling and appropriate for the occasion, were sung by the quartette. The interment was made at the Mesa cemetery beside the body of her son, David Henry. The Rebedahs were in charge of the cemetery services. The funeral cortege was composed of many old friends and neighbors of Plateau Valley. The coffin was banked with numerous bunches of flowers, beautiful and touching tributes of love and sympathy from admiring friends and loving relatives." Buried in the Mesa-Molina Cemetery, near Molina Colorado
