I've found a brief article about Mary's death. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find any information that gives the actual date of her death and I can't find any state-wide databases for deaths in Nebraska.

Thank you Sandra and Jacqui for finding the answers so quickly even though Mary's burial is still missing and actual date of passing.

You have been given some clues that should help you investigate further.  For example - If you check the death certificate for the Reverend James Allen (reply 6) you will see where he was buried - check with that cemetery to see if Mary is also buried there.

Check with the Coldwater Library to see if they have newspaper death notices.

Who was the niece in Nebraska mentioned in the newspaper announcement of Mary's death - further research of Robinson family to try and trace her.  Lots to go on.

Well yes thank you Sandra for pointing that out, I've e-mailed the library and council but am at a loss as to who was in Nebraska, as her siblings seemed to have passed in Ontario.

No, that isn't right - know of at least one brother who passed in Wisconsin and suspect there would be others in the USA at some time.

Following up on Sandra's findings, could this be your Mrs. Allen?

The link also notes the August 24 marriage for Rev. James Allen and Hazel Jenks.

Yes you've cracked it Lisa, that's an interesting archive and very useful. Thank you all again and Sandra.
