Conkling wrote to his cousin Pierson Cory Conkling to report the death of his mother, Rebecca (Ref. Letter dated 27 December 1879. from J.B. Conkling 78 Astor House, New York City to P.C. Conkling). Cincinnati Daily Gazette records her death as 9-January-1880 but letter of Jerome Conklin says 17 Dec 1879.
