funeral occurred last Sunday afternoon, the services being conducted at the Presbyterian church by Rev. J. C. REED of the M.E. church. Mrs. Barkdoll was born in Franklin county, Penn., October 13, 1808, and was at the time of her death, 75 years, 2 months and 15 days of age. Her husband died in Pennsylvania many years ago, and for the past twenty years she has made her home with her children and grandchildren in this city. Some years ago she fell and sustained a serious hip injury which was indirectly the cause of her death. She was a very pleasant old lady, loved and respected by all who knew her, and her death has caused deep sorrow in the household of her relations and many friends.¹

Samuel's obituary was published in the Rochester Sentinel on 12 August 1913:

Sam Barkdoll is Dead, Aged 79 Samuel BARKDOLL, 79, one of the city’s oldest and best known men died at noon Tuesday, at the home of Marshal John CHAMBERLAIN on Fulton Ave., variloid and old age combining to bring life to a close. Until this summer, Mr. Barkdoll had enjoyed fairly good health for a man of his advanced years. However, during the past month, he had been failing rapidly and only last week, was taken to the Woodlawn hospital, where after a few days, it was feared that he might be developing small pox. He was removed to the home of his son-in-law, John Chamberlain, where despite constant attention, he passed away. Previous to his retirement from active business several years ago, he was at the head of the PLANING MILL near the Lake Erie station. He was probably as well known as any man in the city and numbered his friends by the legion. Samuel Barkdoll was born Nov. 18, 1824, in Foundaindale, Adams county, Pennsylvania. As he grew up, he learned the trade of a cabinet maker and following a general trend, he came West in 1856, when he was 22 years of age. Here he met and married Miss Aletha SMITH and to their union were born these children, Minnie [BARKDOLL], who is dead, Schuyler [BARKDOLL], of Detroit, and Trude [BARKDOLL], who lives here. Some time after the death of his first wife, he married Miss Sue STRADLEY. To them were born John [BARKDOLL], Nora [BARKDOLL], George [BARKDOLL], Elsie [BARKDOLL] and James [BARKDOLL], all now deceased, except James, who lives in Denver, Colo. Mrs. Barkdoll died a good many years ago. One sister, Mrs. Chris. HOOVER, is living. There are a number of grandchildren living. There will be no public funeral, health authorities fearing the contagion. Burial was to be made Tuesday if possible.¹

He died on 12 August 1913 at Rochester, Fulton, Indiana, at age 88.¹
