Death certificates shows 20 Sept 1873. Last post for the day: Lillie's husband Frank was the son of George Washington Gorin and Frances Sweeney; grandson of Gladin and Nancy Hinch Gorin. This is confusing as I have always had her as a Downs, father's name as John Downs. This shows her as divorced and I believe this indicated that she was divorced from her first husband, not from Frank Gorin. Her parents are shown as George anad M Richards Lee. More searching needed!
