The Waurika News Waurika, Jefferson County, Oklahoma F. W. ANDERSON, editor Friday, January 24, 1908 Vol. VI, No. 20 NATHANIEL ROBINSON Nathaniel Robinson was born in Licking County, Ohio, September 16, 1840. If he had lived until next September, he would have been 68 years old. At the age of 8 years, he emigrated with his parents to Wisconsin where he lived until about 21 years old when he enlisted in the Union army and served for more than 3 years. His was the 3rd Wisconsin Volunteer Cavalry, Company A. After his war service, he settled in Kansas and was married there December 11th, 1864 to ELIZABETH EWELL, who survives him. Of his immediate family, three children besides the widow are left to mourn his departure. They are MRS. MOLLIE PARSONS and WILL ROBINSON of this city, and MRS. ROSE KELSEY of Oklahoma City. Three grandchildren are two daughters of Mrs. Kelsey and one daughter of Will Robinson. He had six brothers and sisters. A brother, D. A. ROBINSON from Cement, Oklahoma, was here several weeks before he passed away and attended his brother with kindness and faithfulness, both day and night, until the end. Mr. and Mrs. ROBINSON, after their marriage, went to Wisconsin where they lived one year. They then returned to Kansas and later to Sherman, Texas where they lived a year. After living in Sherman, they moved to Oklahoma where they have since lived, part of the time in Indian Territory and the remainder of the time in Waurika. Mr. Robinson was one of the leading men in every community where he has ever lived. He always stood for the right and was always found on the side of good government and on the side with the best people. Mr. Robinson united with the Methodist Church in Oklahoma in 1887 and has been a devout member of that organization ever since… Rev. S. M. HUNT, an old friends of the family and pastor of the Presbyterian Church here, preached the funeral sermon in a very impressive manner. He spoke feelingly of his friendship for his old friend and of his good works while in life. The funeral was attended by the largest assembly of persons seen in Waurika for years.
