Message Board Post:
Theodore Colcord's obituary, attached, comes from a scrapbook which contains many undated items. The date on this one is probably Theodore's death date (March 22, 1914 was a Sunday) and not the date of the newspaper (which name is unknown to me). An age of 66 in 1914 would put his birth year at about 1848. This is consistent with 1860 and 1870 census entries for the family.
