Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Historical Sketch of the Robinson Family of the Line of Ebenezer Robinson: A Soldier of the Revolution Born at Lexington, Feb, 14th, 1765, Died at South Reading, Oct, 31, 1857
It is with some degree Of pleasure and satisfaction that the undersigned present this Historical Sketch Of the Rob inson Family to the descendants Of Ebenezer Robinson, whose life is herein described.
While on a visit to Boston last August, we had the pleasure Of attending the biennial meeting Of the Rob-inson Family Association at Gloucester, Mass, Of visiting the birthplace Of Ebenezer Robinson at historic Lexington, and Of viewing the lane where young Robinson, hearing the noise of the battle, ran down and witnessed the retreat of the British troops along the turn-pike to Boston.
It was an eventful summer day to us when with our kodaks, we inspected the patriotic scenes about Lexington, and the interest awakened there and at the Robinson Fam ily gathering at Gloucester is the responsible cause Of this sketch.
If the descendants Of Ebenezer Robinson take anything like the pleasure in reading and tracing this family history that has been enjoyed in its preparation, we shall be amply repaid for the time and effort expended.
