John Herbert Robinson info Please
« on: Monday 21 August 06 01:32 BST (UK) »
Can some one help me find information on JOHN HERBERT ROBINSON b. 1885 England.
I have him moving to Canada before 1914. John married Jane Davison on June 16, 1914 in Alberta, Canada. I have not found him or Jane on the 1911 census yet so I don't have the year when he immigrated to Canada.

Would like his parents names and if he had any siblings.
Please and Thank You

Hi Aley !!

There's 121 John Robinson's born 1885 on 1891 census !!

Any chance you might know an area he could have been from !! do you have any family stories or snippets that may give a clue ?

Hello Annie

I really don't have anything, just that he was a miner ( trying to find where ) in Alberta. One Aunt said he might have been a over seer somewhere in Northern Alberta but so far have found nothing on it.

I wonder if the John that Suz found in Durham might be a "possible"  ::) maybe mining was in his blood !!
Have you also posted on the Canada board ??

The John that Suz found might be a possible match. I will try the Canada board.

Thanks Ann and Suz

Suz

John Herbert did have 2 children. One was named Isabell and one Elizabeth. Maybe this is the right family.
 Yes, I would love to see the full details.
