The funeral card

From the funeral card

Sacred to the Memory of Mary Ann Skoines. Died Aug 12, 1876 at the age of 23 years.

She lived in Pittsburg [sic] Pennsylvania

Pittsburgh is given as Mary Ann's place of residence — the card does not explicitly state where she died. The card also carries a two-column mourning verse below the name block (each column ending "Weep not for me"), but it is illegible at this scan's resolution (2026-07-22 OCR pass) — worth revisiting if a higher-resolution copy ever surfaces.
