Nunda Herald 27 Feb 1902
Nunda Herald - 27 Feb 1902 - "Elizabeth Shaw McMillan was born in Schenectady, 
N.Y., Dec. 27, 1820, and died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth 
Hunter, Sunday, Feb. 23, 1902, aged 81 years, 1 month and 28 days after an 
illness of only a week.
     In the year 1847 she was married to John A. Robison, and a few years 
later they moved to their home here where she resided up to the time of her 
death, her husband having died July 1, 1898. Mrs. Robison was of a retiring 
disposition and was in every sense of the word a home-body, and was untiring 
in her efforts to make it pleasant for those she loved. She will be especially 
missed by the daughter with whom she has spent all the declining years of her 
life, and where she received every care and comfort that could be given her. 
She was the mother of six children, three sons and three daughters, two having 
died in infancy. Four remain to mourn her loss, namely: Andrew J. Robison, 
Fullerton, Neb.; H.R. Robison, Crowley, La.; Mrs. Hester Ann Goodwin, Elgin, 
Ill., and Mrs. Elizabeth Hunter, Barreville, Ill. She also leaves twelve 
grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren and three brothers.
     The funeral services were held at the house at 1 p.m., Tuesday, conducted 
by Rev. W.B. Doble. The M.E. choir furnished music. Many friends were in 
attendance. The burial was in Terra Cotta cemetery."
