Mrs. Cyrus H. ROBBINS, 89, died Sunday night at 11:30 o'clock after a long illness at her home on West 11th street. Death was due to hardening of the arteries and complications due to old age. She was well known in the community being a pioneer here.
Sarah Catherine SMALL, daughter of David and Leah SMOCK SMALL, was born Nov. 28, 1835, five miles south of Indianapolis, Ind.
Before she was grown she moved with her parents to Rochester and has since lived here.
She was united in marriage in 1858 to Cyrus H. ROBBINS who died March 1, 1917.
Nine children were born of this union, one daughter, June Gertrude [ROBBINS] died in 1915. She is survived by four sons, Alfred D. [ROBBINS] and Charles E. [ROBBINS] of Rochester, Bert [ROBBINS] and Roy [ROBBINS] of Mishawaka, and four daughters, Mrs. Noah BARNHISEL of Akron, Mrs. Albert MARTINDALE of Peru, Mrs. Stephen PYLE and Mrs. Bert COLE of Rochester and one sister, Mrs. A. HORNADAY of Indianapolis. Twenty-two grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren also survive her.
When quite a young girl she united with the Methodist church and therefore she was able to say something that few people could say, that she had been a member of the Methodist church for a little more than 80 years.
Her illness was long and severe, yet as members of her family stated, she bore it without a murmur, for her faith in the Heavenly Father was firm and she was ready to say, "Thy will be done."
The funeral will be held from the residence 331 West Eleventh street, Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock with Rev. FRALEY in charge.
