Anderson, Robert Willis: Doctor of Dental Surgery

     Born Nov. 12, 1857. New York City, son of Robert and Mary (Willis)
Anderson; married Susan Alice Young, Honolulu, July 12, 1893. Mrs. Anderson, who
survives her husband, was Miss Susan Alice Young, a daughter of the late
Alexander Young, one of the foremost industrial builders of Hawaii, a pioneer in
the sugar industry, one of the early owners of the Honolulu Iron Works, and the
builder of the Alexander Young Hotel, one of the finest hotels in the world and
Honolulu's first modern building. Dr. and Mrs. Anderson were the parents of
three children, Robert Alexander Anderson, treasurer and director of the von
Hamm-Young Co., Ltd.; Mary Ruth, wife of Paul B. Winslow, of the Territorial
Hotel Co., Ltd., and Robert Willis Anderson, Jr. (deceased).

     A pioneer dental surgeon of Honolulu, long prominent in civic affairs and
beloved by thousands of friends for his kindly nature and charitable deeds, the
notable career of Dr. Robert W, Anderson was terminated by death in Honolulu on
Jan. 6, 1927.

     Obtaining his primary education in the schools of Plainfield, N. J., Dr.
Anderson later attended the Philadelphia Dental College and was graduated in
1883 with the degree of D. D. S. He practiced his profession in Plainfield until
his removal to Honolulu in 1889, and was in practice here for almost forty
years, retiring from active work only a short time before his death.
