Read More	Robert Gambel Robinson was born in Fulton county, Illinois, April 5, 1861, removed with his parents to Leavenworth county, Kansas, in 1864, was married to Mrs. Frankie Nunnemaker, December 31, 1890, and died at his home in this city, April 18, 1898. Mr. Robinson health has never been robust, either as a boy or man. On this account he was not sent to college and given a classical education, but the lack of a college education did not prevent his intellectual development. When a boy of fifteen he entered Naylor's drug store in this city and remained with them about a year and then went to Philadelphia and graduated in a pharmaceutical institution. Afterwards he engaged in the drug business at Seneca for a year or two. He soon made up his mind he did not like the business and selling out he came to this city and entered the office of Hayden & Hayden as a law student and afterwards, we think, attended the law school at Columbia, Missouri. He was a bright student and made such proficiency that at the age of 29 he was chosen county attorney of this county. We clip, the following in reference from an article entitled, "Jackson-Counties Public Men," published in The Recorder last January, the 6th: "In 1884 R. G. Robinson received the Republican nomination for county attorney, and not having any opposition he was elected without a dissenting vote. Two years later he again received the nomination unanimously and was again elected without opposition. Again in 1888 he was again nominated .... after serving out his third term Mr. Robinson retired and gave his attention to his rapidly increasing law practice ... invested in a farm on Straight Creek ... In 1894 Mr. Robinson was elected to represent this district in the legislature .... in 1896, owing to poor health, he declined the renomination .... He is now the senior partner of the law firm of Robinson, Hurrel and Graham of this city.".... two children, Helen age 6, and Herbert, 4 ... His parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Robinson are both living in this city ... His other immediate relatives were four sisters, Mrs. [W. H.] McCreary, of Concordia, Mrs. T. K. Tousey, of Houston, Texas, Mrs. Libbe Sargent and Miss Claude Robinson of this city .... The Holton Weekly Signal, April 20, 1898.
