Cora was my paternal grandmother who died at 28 years of age from sepsis (Steve Smith-her dad, Adeline Comstock-her mom, and Westley are some surnames I am familiar with on her side). I was told this was due to unsanitary conditions and complications during the birth of her fifth child Harold. Bobby-mentioned here-was my dad-Robert Lester Lubinski-born in 1917 and passed away in 1998 at 80 years of age. Her obituary here mentions she gave birth to 5 children but only mentions Virgil, Lilas, Bobby and Harold. This further states she was laid to rest in the Mentor Township Cemetery next to her 2 children. A cross reference with the cemetery listing only identifies Harold as being buried there. Cora's other child-a girl-I do believe named Viola is also buried there. It is written that she died from injuries she sustained when she fell from a "sewing" machine. Being an old farmgirl myself...the story was never clear as to what type of "sewing" machine...one used for sewing and mending or an actual farm implement. My dad was all of 2 years old when his mom died but still could recount early memories of her being a loving and caring mother. I regret never knowing her-except in word and cherish what additional information I have found here on this website.

Thank you so much. Deborah Sue Lubinski

Andrew and Cora Lubinski were my paternal grandparents; and Harold's brother Bobby was my dad-Robert Lester Lubinski. The story goes that Harold was delivered at home by a midwife. Unsanitary conditions contributed to Cora's illness and subsequent death following Harold's. My dad recounted memories of Cora asking about Harold when he and the other children were taken to visit her-seeing that Harold was in the care of his aunt at the time and Cora being at another place. This was a time of much grief for the Lubinski's needless to say; and the loss of Cora affected her children greatly. My dad continued to grieve the loss of his mom into his later years and would get tearful whenever we talked about this time in his life. Again...I am so thankful for whomever is responsible for this website's creation...
