ROBINSON, 2194 Parker Cir., Omaha, NE 68110, (402) 346-2151 I also checked http://www.555-1212.com for them in Nebraska and found: Frank Robinson: 1 in Grand Island, 1 in Kearney, 1 in Kimball, 2 in Lincoln, and 1 in Oshkosh. No Helma Robinson. You might want to contact the Greater Omaha Genealogical Society (GOGS). They do lookups. The main branch of the Omaha Public Library has a considerable amount of genealogical materials. They could possibly check the city directories through the years (especially if you have an address available) and when they disappear from the city directory possibly locate newspaper obituaries if they died. GOGS' web site is http://www.rootsweb.com/~nedougla/gogs.html and here is some info from their web page: . . . Start excerpt . . .
