Margaret Robinson: Preston Times, July 8, 1903

Sunday evening at 10 o'clock death was again in our midst and this time brought relief to Mrs. Wm. Robinson who has been a sufferer from cancer for a very long time. Mrs. Robinson had no immediate family in this vicinity, her husband being dead and her near relatives living in Canada, yet she has many friends who deeply mourn with the far away relatives. Our sincere sympathy is extended. This goes to press too early for further particulars.

The remains of Mrs. William Robinson were laid to rest in the cemetery at Hesper, Thursday. A nephew of hers from Woodstock, Canada is here to look after her property interest.

Note: Margaret Robinson was the second wife of William Robinson 1823-1899.

Margaret McIntosh was born in Scotland, on January 26th, 1840, and died in Mabel, Minn., on July 5th, 1903. Some years after she went to Canada, and lived until April 5th, 1883, when she married Wm. Robinson, and came to Newburg township, where she and Mr. Robinson made their home until his death a few years ago. Her remains were laid beside those of her husband in the Hesper cemetery, on the 9th. A sister and other relatives mourn her loss.

Transcriber's Note: Her gravestone shows the year of her birth as 1839.
