The Barnesville Gazette.
Barnesville, Georgia, Thursday, February 28, 1878

Last Friday one of the oldest men in this section was buried. Mr. James
Robinson, age 96 years, died at his residence near the line of Pike and
Monroe counties. He was born while the American revolution was burdening
this country. His father was a prisoner at some time during the
revolution and escaped execution by the enemy, by escaping from prison.
His sister was the mother of General Braxton Bragg, whose reputation is
well known to most of our readers. The remains of Mr. Robinson were
interred at Union church, near Gogginsville last Friday.
