Notes for Robert Scobee
Putnam Co. Indiana vital statistics book H-1, b. 214, records the death of Robert Scobey, age 56, in Feb 1890, no day.
Online family trees at Ancestry.com seem to be split about 50/50 in containing a death date of either 7 Feb 1890, or 4 Oct 1893. Since the former is consistent with this book, I am prefering it, but I would be interested to know where the other specific date came from.

Notes for Robert & Caroline (Family)
This is not intended to represent a complete family group. I have no Scobee ancestry, and am entering them only to document the parents of Mary J. Scobee who married William T. Ferrand.
