Chronicle Herald - Friday, 18 July 2003 - Page B6 - Carl Victor Robinson - Robinson, Carl Victor - 87, Steam Mill, Kings Co., passed away on Wednesday, July 16, 2003, in Valley Regional Hospital, Kentville. Born in Camp Aldershot, May 30, 1916, he was a son of the late Howard and Jennie (Savage) Robinson. His family moved to their farm in Steam Mill in the early 1920s, setting out orchards. Even as a child he had a great passion for horses and left home to work in a lumber camp as a teamster, when he was 14. Returning home in the spring, he used his earnings to help his parents make a mortgage payment on the farm, and he bought his first horse. He owned one or more horses for the rest of his life. As a teenager, he served with the "Kings County Hussars", and may have been the last surviving member of the calvary militia unit. He competed in horse pulling into his eighties. His love and interest in horses was shared with many friends of all ages, including the many new friends he met at the Old Orchard Inn, during his sleigh rides. He lost many a teamster and other long-time friends late in life, but his stock of friends never diminished nor did his enthusiasm for shared interests and life. After farming, working in the lumber woods and for M.W. Graves and others, he went to Florida in the mid 1940s, where he met and married his wife, returning to take over the family farm in Steam Mill in 1955. He was a founding member of Bethany Memorial Baptist Church, Aldershot. He was the last surviving member of his immediate family. Surviving are daughters, Pat (Charles) McGee, Jacksonville, Fla.; Jennie (Steven) Enman, Steam Mill; sons, Walter (Janet) Newton, Port Williams; David (Arlene) Robinson, Halifax; 10 grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; six nephews and nieces.

    3. UNKNOWN PAPER - 26 FEBRUARY 1944 MARGARET SWAN - Central New Annan - On Tuesday evening, February 22, the angel of Death again visited our community and called home to her eternal rest, Margaret, wife of James SWAN, in the 82nd year of her age. Two weeks before her death, she fell in her home, breaking her leg. She never fully recovered from the shock of this, and two days before her death congestion of the lungs set in. Her suffering was borne with great Christian fortitude and patience. All that loving hands could do for her, was done, but to no avail, and on Tuesday night her spirit entered that land from which no traveler returns, and where suffering is unknown. There are left to mourn their loss besides her husband, two daughters, (Mrs.) Mrs. Charles LANGILLE, of Central New Annan, who was unable to attend her mother's funeral on account of being confined to her home with an attack of pleurisy, and (Lilla) Mrs. Angus MacKENZIE, of O'Leary, P.E.I., who was also unable to be present; four sons, Norman, of West New Annan, Eugene of Central New Annan, Charles of Pictou, and Wilfred who resides on the old homestead at Central New Annan, but at present employed at Bridgewater; also two brothers, Daniel, of Central New Annan, and Albert of Malden, Mass., who were also unable to attend the funeral. She also leaves a number of grandchildren and one great grand-child, who will mourn the loss of a grandmother, whom they always knew as being kind and loving to them. Three years ago last November she and her husband celebrated their Golden Wedding anniversary at the home of their daughter, Mrs. Charles LANGILLE. For many years she was a faithful member of the United Women's Missionary Society, until failing eyesight and declining years no longer permitted her to attend the meetings. A short service was held from her late home at one o'clock on Friday, thence to the Central New Annan Church, where another service was held at two o'clock. (...) spoke words of comfort to the bereaved, and he said that although we leave this world empty-handed, that throughout our lifetime we build up treasures for ourselves in Heaven. He spoke of some of the treasures of the late Mrs. SWAN as being of a kind disposition, good character and love of family. Hymns sung by the choir were favorites of the deceased: "The Lord's My Shepherd," "Well There Be Any Start in My Crown" and "In the Sweet Bye and Bye." The pallbearers were Laurie, Louis, Donald and Earl LANGILLE, and Laurie SWAN, all nephews of the deceased. Floral tributes were very beautiful testifying to the esteem in which deceased was held. Interment was in the Bell Gift Cemetery, West New Annan.
