Robinson was born in Marion County, West Virginia, July 19th, 1840. She came with her parents to Missouri and was married to James Thompson in 1856. To that union two boys were born, John W. Thompson deceased, and Hiram E. Thompson of California. Her husband, James Thompson, enlisted in the Union Army in 1861 and died in the service in 1862. In 1864, Mrs. Thompson came to Douglas County, Nebraska, and was married to George W. Marshall, a Civil War veteran in 1866. In 1869, she moved to a farm five miles east of the present site of Valparaiso. She lived in Valparaiso and vicinity for 48 years, then moved to Harlan County, Nebraska and was living at Republican City where she passed away Sunday morning, May 17th, 1925 at the age of 84 years, 9 months, and 28 days. At an early age she became a Christian first joining the United Brethren church and later becoming a member of the Methodist Episcopal church. Being left a widow with two small children during the Civil War she accepted her share of the responsibilities of that period, often following the plow and doing heavy work which the women of that time found necessary to do account the men being away fighting. She will be remembered to the early settlers of Saunders County on account of her work among the sick and her help in the upbuilding of a Christian community. Later years when the infirmities of age prevented her from taking an active part in church work she was sustained by a strong faith, and as the end drew near, eagerly looked forward, to the time when she could lay aside the cares of life and receive the reward which is promised to those who keep the faith. She leaves to mourn her departure one daughter, four sons and a host of other relatives and friends.
