Wednesday, 3 October 1962.
Robert Moffatt, 79, of 280 Railroad St., died at 6:40 p.m. Tuesday at Mercy Hospital.
Friends may call after 4 p.m. Thursday at Egelhof Funeral Home. Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. Friday at the funeral home, Rev Willard Cunningham, of St. Luke's Methodist Church officiating. Burial will be in East Dubuque.
He was born in Orilla, Ontario, Canada, son of Mr and Mrs Thomas Moffatt, and lived here 55 years. He was retired since 1933.
Surviving are a son, Dr Thomas Moffatt, of Denver, Colo; four daughters, Mrs Wayne (Lenore) Anthony, of Dubuque; Mrs Harker (Ruth) Spensley, of Denver, Colo.; Mrs Roger (Grace) Worley, of Dayton, Ohio and Mrs Jerry (Betty) Cummins, of Boulder, Colo., and 12 grandchildren.
Robert had a longtime girlfriend, Florence Traut.

NOTE: Even though Robert's nickname was "Baskey," a researcher once questioned whether Ellen Baskerville really was his ancestor. I can tell you now (in 2020) that Ancestry thrulines show at least 15 known genetic cousins who are related to me (Robert's great granddaughter) whose ancestor was a sibling of Ellen Baskerville. That's pretty good evidence.
