I am searching for an obituary for Mary Jane Collins Skinner. she died in 1860, probably in Ashtabula County, Ohio. Her husband was George Washington Skinner, her child was Marion Collins Skinner. In the 1860 census they were lining in Conneaut. I am also trying to find a marriage license or announcement for her and George, I believe they were married in 1852. She and George are my 3x great grandparents. She is buried in Amboy, Ashtabula County, Ohio.

    Hi @Mark Grantham_1 . There was at least a notice of death for Mary Jane Skinner. The details were recorded here: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CS3Q-B993-3?i=177

    As for the marriage record, George's Find a Grave memorial has the marriage date in his obituary. You might consider contacting the memorial's manager to ask about it. Otherwise, one of his other descendants who left flowers on that page might have some information about a possible certificate: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/32230097/george_washington_skinner

    Hope that helps!
