RE: George Robinson and his Family
Due to the weather, the mail here in PA has been slow. I just received my Courier and want to commend Blaine on a well researched and well written article. There was plenty I did not know about the man (Robinson). This also leads me to two questions; the first concerns the medal. Four were originally struck, one gold, one bronze and two silver. Robinson received the gold and bronze, Does anyone know why two silver medals were cast and what happened to them?
Secondly, George's mother, brothers and sister are buried in Poland Corner Cemetery in Hartford, Maine, where there is a cenotaph to him. I always thought this is where he was buried in Maine.
Lastly, George's mother, Deborah Thomas Robinson, died some 20 years before his father. When his father remarried, he named his first born Deborah Ann Robinson Thorn.
