When you are looking for an obituary, always remember to check various locations – not just the place that the person was living when they died.
Rebecca Campbell Baker had been living in Kansas for a number of years, but she was a native of Indiana county, Pennsylvania.
The first obituary I found (in Kansas) was not very descriptive.
I recently found this obituary in the 6 Apr 1910 issue of the Indiana Messenger (Indiana, PA) and it had a lot more information. She had a daughter who still lived in the area, and I’m sure that there were many people who still knew her.
MRS. REBECCA BAKER
Mrs. Rebecca Campbell, widow of the late James Baker, of Marion Center, died March 5, 1910, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. W. A. Marshall, near Lawrence, Kan., after an illness of four years, lacking but a few weeks of being 90 years old. Mrs. Baker was the daughter of the late William Campbell, a pioneer at Marion Center. She was born at the well-known Campbell home, in Center township, and was a niece of the late Judge Joseph Campbell. She was a devout member of the United Presbyterian church until after her marriage, when she became a member of the Methodist church with her husband. In 1869 the family moved to Warren county, Tenn., and in 1879 went to Douglass county, Kan., where she lived the remainder of her 90 years. Eight children came to the Baker home, four of whom survive, as follows: Mrs. D.R. Pringle, of Indiana: C.S. Baker, of Oklahoma, and H.P. Baker and Mrs. Mary Marshall, near Lawrence, Kan. Mrs. Baker was stricken with paralysis almost four years preceding her death and was confined to an invalid chair or her couch all this time but her beautiful christian spirit kept her cheerful and patient to the end.
