DWYER, China Virginia (Baldwin): 3 Dec 1859 - 8 May 1935
Source: newspaper clipping
Miss China V. Baldwin, the daughter of Francis W. and Mary E. Baldwin was born Dec 3, 1859 near Springfield, Illinois, moving to Kansas with her parents when 5 years of age. In 1873 she confessed Christ, during a meeting conducted by Bro. Harvey. She and her mother were baptized the same day. She and George Dwyer were united in marriage, May 13, 1877. To this union 8 children were born as follows: W.F. Dwyer who died when 4 months old; O.W. Dwyer of Kansas City, Kansas; J.C. and M.G. Dwyer of Hugoton, Kansas; W.J. Dwyer of Burden, Kansas; A.J. and E.O. Dwyer of Cambridge, Kansas, and Mrs. C.L. Jackson, who died Nov. 21, 1905. Mrs. Dwyer lived near and in Cambridge for 58 years. Departing from this life May 8, 1935, at the age of 75 years, 5 months, and 5 days. Leaving to mourn for her departure, G. H. Dwyer, 6 sons, 18 grandchildren, 6 great-grandchildren, many neices and nephews, also other relatives and friends. A sample of her life is shown by thoughts expressed in her own writing as follows:
"Blessed Bible, how I love it, How it doth my bosom cheer. What hath earth like this to covet? Oh, what stores of wealth are here? Man was lost and doomed to sorrow. Not one ray of hope or bliss could be from earth's treasure borrow. Till his way was cheered by this. Yes, sweet Bible, I will hide thee - hide thee richly in this heart. Thou through all my life wilt guide me, and in death we will not part. Part in Death - no never. Never through death's vale. I'll lean on Thee, then in worlds above forever. Sweeter still Thy truths shall be." The above is evidently written to her family, because it was signed, "Mother"
More of her lovely thoughts expressed as follows:
"There is no death, 'tis but a restful closing of eyes, grown weary of the scenes of earth. A blissful waking and a sweet reposing of hearts. I yearn for love where is no death, 'tis but a little journey over the river, the Crystal river, where no storms assail. 'Tis trusting Him the Mighty, to deliver, where love and might and power can never fail." - "Mother"
"No death, Ah no, 'tis life eternal, 'tis love and joy forever, trusting soul. 'Tis peace and rest and beauty bright where nothing shall annoy while ages roll. No death! Ah, no. With some unknown Angel we go away." - "Mother"
"Oh, glorius hour, Oh, blessed abode. I shal be near and like my God, and flesh and sin no more control the sacred pleasure of the soul."
The above thoughts were found written on tablet paper found in her Bible.

Howard and Mary started their family in 1948 with the birth of their first daughter Connie Sue. Kathy Lynn and Deanna Kaye soon followed and the family spent their early years in Waynoka, OK until 1955 when Howard convinced Mary that Colorado was the place for them. He worked for Sears for several years as a service repairman, and eventually purchased Barley's Refrigeration.
