The Ellaville Sun  Friday, Sept. 13, 1940  No. 13
MR. ROBINSON DIES MONDAY
Funeral services were held at Ellaville Methodist church Tuesday afternoon at 
3 o'clock for Mr. Arin Robinson, 83, well-known retired merchant who died 
early Monday afternoon of a lingering illness.  The Rev. W.S. Johnson 
officiated, and was assisted by the Rev. Hugh Dozier.  Burial was in the local 
cemetery.  Born in Gasden (Gadsden) county, Fla., January 4, 1857, Mr. 
Robinson was left an orphan at eight when both his parents died within six 
weeks.  His mother passed away while his father, a Confederate soldier, was 
home on furlough, and his father died six weeks later after returning to the 
army.  Mr. Robinson moved to Sumter county as a youth and farmed there for 
many years.  He came to Ellaville about 15 years ago to operate a grocery 
store.  Ill health forced his retirement six years ago.  His wife, who died in 
November, 1937, was the former Miss Malinda Speer, of Florida.  Survivors 
include two sons, J.H. Robinson, Ellaville; A.Forrest Robinson, Alpine, Texas; 
two daughters, Mrs. Hugh Mills, Albany;  Mrs. Troy G. Morrow, Ellaville.  
Pallbearers were James H. Hart, George Standridge, Carl Walker, Corry Williams 
D.C. Mott, S.A. Manning.
