These descendants are probably my only chance of this Robinson branch continuing to 2008.

1939 Register . George T Robinson, born 6/7/1872, horsekeeper, disabled through illness, was living 74 Gilbey Road, Wandsworth, with Alice T Robinson, born 12/2/1877. Plus one closed record . Thus living in the same house as in 1911

1939 Death of a George T. Robinson in Wandsworth in 1939, est. age 65 could well be him.

1962. Alice T Robinson probably dies Battersea 1962, aged 85.

Feb2011 search of Genes & Ancestry showed no trace of his descendants
