Bio
FRIDAY, APRIL 30, 1909.Obituary ROBERT COGDILL. Born March 23, 1856, in Buchanan Co. MO. Died at 12 o'clock (noon) Monday, April 26, 1909, at residence of Wm. Frans Sr., in Union, Cass County, Neb. The death of Robert Cogdill was a severe and unexpected shock to the wife and other relatives, though it was known that he suffered from heart trouble that might result in death at any moment. He and his family arrived here on the 18th of this month from their home near Selden, Kann., his physician having informed him at a change of climate was absolutely necessary to prolong his life. He was able to come out in town a few times after their arrival here, but on Monday morning his condition became very serious and death came aat the noon hour. Funeral services were held yesterday (April 29) afternoon at 2 o'clock in the Baptist church, after which the remains were laid to rest in the cemetery west of town. The pall bearers were W. H. Mark, James Niday, Fred Young, Sant Gifford, James Reynolds, Peter Clarence. Robert Cogdill's early life was spent in his native state, Missouri, where he was married Sept. 15, 1879, to Miss Rosa A. Frans. Their first coming to Nebraska was in 1884, locating a few miles southwest of here where they resided several years, then moved to Oklahoma and remained three years, returning here in 1896. They spent several years in Knox Co., and in 1907 located on a large farm which Mr. Cogdill purchases near the town of Selden, Kansas, where they had a comfortable home and property of sufficient amount to enable them to enjoy themselves, when the warning was given thaat he could not live in that climate. Mr. Cogdill was a member of Baptist church, with which he united a number of years ago, and his life has been in harmony with its teachings - an honorable and upright citizen who had the respect and confidence of all his acquaintances. Besides the widow, he leaves one son and eight daughters as follows: Samuel, of Bloomfield, Neb.; Flora, wife of John Klaurens, residing at Menlo KS; Hattie, wife of A. Harn; and Bessie, wife of Leander Niday, both residing at Bloomfielld, Neb.; Jessie, wife of Ray Fleury, residing at Randolph, Neb.; Jennie, Emma, Willa and Effa, who are with their mother. All of the children were here to attend the funeral. A CARD OF THANKS.
