Read More	George Robinson was first married to Texie Stewart Robinson. They were the parents of at least three children together before her presumptive death prior to 1895. His second wife was Sarah Melinda Sanders Robinson, to whom he was married April 7, 1895 at the home of her uncle, W.H. Sanders, two miles west of Liberty, SC, by Rev.L.T. Weldon. His obituary stated he died in his home near Liberty after a lingering illness. He was a lifelong resident of Pickens County and a member of the Wesleyan Methodist Church. At the time of his death he was survived by his wife; six daughters, Mrs. J.W. Heaton, Mrs. C.R. McKittrick, Mrs. Fannie Rowland, Mrs. R.F. McKittrick, Mrs. W.O. Hunter, and Mrs. Debra Holcombe; two sons, S.E. & George Robinson; 36 grandchildren and 25 great-grandchildren. His funeral was held at the family home on Wednesday, January 19, 1944, conducted by the Rev. O.B. Stewart. Burial: West View Cemetery* As was the custom of the day, the body remained at the home with the family until the time of the funeral or burial. SCDC Pickens County 1944 #01763 Liberty, SC Jay M. Abbott, Undertaker Liberty, SC Full obituary may be located here: The Greenville News Robinson, G W 1944 Jan 19 p 10 age 83 Liberty NOTE** His wife’s 1948 death certificate and obituary both stated burial in Abbott Cemetery. His 1944 death certificate stated burial in “Liberty, SC” and his obituary stated burial in West View Cemetery. Even though no marker has been found for either, it is believed the section of cemetery where they are both buried is on property officially owned by the Abbott family and was once known as Abbott Cemetery. It is at the bottom of the hill next to a portion of West View Cemetery, owned by the City of Liberty. There are no signs for either cemetery in this area, and over time this property has become known as West View Cemetery in both obituaries and death certificates. There is a signed and named cemetery across the road called Abbott Cemetery, started in the early 1940’s and once owned by the Abbotts, and now owned by a Mr. Galloway, who is also apparently deceased.
