William Robinson
M, #9359, b. about 1830
Biography
- Birth: About 1830; Ireland
- Note: William was a listed as a yeoman on the marriage registration. The 1851 census for William and Sarah Robinson indicates that William was an Innkeeper in Arthur. I have not been able to find this couple in any subsequent census.
There is also the following information about a William Robinson who is listed as a "squatter" in Erin Tp--probably not the same person?? "William Robinson; Con 4; E1/2; Lot 5 valuation 4/16; value in 1846
11/6; remarks called 19, November, 1850 and will pay in February, 1852." This remark was specifically marked also for Moses Little, who shared the W 1/2 of the lot....

- Birth: 28 June 1833; Ireland
- Death: 2 September 1919; Arthur, Wellington County, Ontario
- Burial: Greenfield Cemetery, Arthur, Ontario
- Note: In 1852 Elizabeth was 16, in which case she would have been born in 1836. However, the 1901 Census indicates that she immigrated to Canada in 1835. Death reg'n #34201: name recorded Eliza, daughter of George Smith, born Ireland, died in village of Arthur at age 85; cause of death senility; informant was Margaret Mitchell of Arthur.
- Note: John Chalmers Mitchell; Wellington County Archives sent the following to the donor of the marriage certificate:
"Marriage certificate of John Mitchell and Eliza Smith, Arthur Township, 1858
"Single-page marriage certificate, hand-written and signed by Presbyterian minister Rev. John McMechan, and dated 11 March 1858, certifying that John Mitchell and Eliza Smith, both of Arthur Township, were married at the Smith residence on Thursday, 11 March 1858. Signed by witnesses Peter Grieve and Edward Ogden.
"The (Fergus) British Constitution of 19 March 1858 (page 3) published the notice 'Married - on the llth inst., at the residence of the bride's father, by the Rev. John McMechan, Mr. John Chalmers Mitchell to Eliza, daughter of George Smith, Esq., all of the Township of Arthur.'
The George Smith farm, where the wedding took place, was located at Lot 34, on the east side of the Owen Shound Road, just north of the Village of Arthur. W.F. MacKenzie's history of Arthur Village states that J.C. Mitchell came to the village of Arthur with his parents in 1848, at the age of 10.' "

- Note: The 1901 census says Robert was born in 1860. However, the 1861 census (Arthur, p. 19) lists Robert J. as 2 years old and George as 1 year. I conclude that the correct birth year is probably 1859.
