Irving J. Gill's October 9, 1936 obituary from the San Diego Union newspaper.

Interestingly, this obituary included several errors. Here are the corrections:

- Mr. Gill arrived in San Diego and began his practice in 1893. In the following 43 years he also practiced and, for some of that time, lived in Los Angeles.

- Gill died in the San Diego County Hospital, which was in the Hillcrest neighborhood.

- While Gill did work on the Chicago Columbian Exposition while working for the firm of Adler & Sullivan, he also built his first building as an independent architect in Chicago in the spring of 1893, just before moving to San Diego.

- Gill worked with John Olmsted, a landscape architect and son of Frederick Law Olmsted, the father of American Landscape Architecture. Gill did not design a home for John Olmsted; he designed a home for Frederick’s brother and John’s uncle, Albert Olmsted.

- The Ellen Mason house and the Albert Olmsted house are both in Newport, RI. Gill did design a building in Bar Harbor, ME, but it was a flower shop.

- The clubhouse in La Jolla is spelled La Jolla Woman’s Club.

- Gill’s wife’s name is Marion A. (Waugh) Gill.
