ROBISON. Jackson Township." [Transcribed on November 30, 2007 by RLJ from microfilm of the original newspaper on file in the Bloomfield-Eastern Greene County Public Library.] Sarah J. CORBIN, eldest daughter of Jesse and Delilah {JACKSON} CORBIN, was born near Dresden, Greene County, Indiana, August 12, 1846. She was married to Hiram H. SIMS December 20, 1866, to which union were born three children, Amanda B., John B. and Nannie D. The later preceded her mother to the better world December 24, 1898. She united with the Regular Baptist Church, near where she was born, in 1870, in which faith she lived a devoted and exemplary Christian life until her death. Her sickness was of seven months' duration, and it was only after the best medical skill that could be procured and everything that a devoted husband and kind and sympathizing relatives and friends could do had been exhausted that the grim reaper was able to claim his prize. She died at her home in Loogootee March 18, 1910, aged sixty-three years, seven months and six days. She was a kind and loving wife and mother; always ready and willing to help those who needed help.; was always chee! rful and everyone was welcome to her home. As a result of her loving heart and generous acts her friends extended as far as her acquaintance, and no one knew her but to love her. She was of a large family and was the first ling to be broken of a chain of thirteen. She leaves a husband, two children, fourteen grandchildren, seven sisters, five brothers and a host of relatives and friends to mourn their loss. But not as those who have no hope. - Link to the Obituary of her father, Jesse CORBIN [1823KY-1894IN]: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.indiana.counties.greene/2726/mb.ashx - Link to the Obituary of her mother, Delilah (JACKSON) CORBIN [1827KY-1891IN]: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.indiana.counties.greene/2572/mb.ashx - Link to the Obituary of her eldest brother, John B.
