   SAMUEL E. ROBINSON hotel-keeper, P.O. Warminster, is a 
son of Samuel and Mary L. Robinson, both of whom came from 
England, the former in 1816. The family settled in 
Warrington township, but subsequently returned to England, 
with the exception of three sons and one daughter. All are 
now deceased but the daughter. The father of our subject 
was a farmer, and after his marriage bought a farm in 
Warrington township, on which he lived until late in life, 
when he removed to Doylestown, where he died in February, 
1884. His wife was Mary L. Sutton, who came from England 
with her parents, who settled in Buckingham township. She 
was born in 1800, and died in 1879. Mr. and Mrs. Robinson 
had five children, all living:  Jane, Emma, Anna, Edmund and 
Samuel E., who was born March 2, 1838, in Warrington 
township. He lived with his father until he was 29 years 
old, and for four years thereafter farmed the home place for 
himself. He then removed to Philadelphia, where he was in a 
hotel for four years, and in 1875 bought the hotel property 
in Warminster, with the farm adjoining. Mr. Robinson has 
been twice married, his first wife being Ellen G., daughter 
of Jacob Titus, of Warrington, to whom he was married in 
1866. She died in 1869, leaving a daughter, Laura E., now 
living with her father. Mr. Robinson's second wife is Mary 
A., daughter of Andrew Dudbridge, of Warwick township. They 
had one child, Mary Blanche. Mr. Robinson is a member of 
Neshaminy Tribe, No. 160, Improved Order of Red Men, of 
Ivyland, and of the A. O. U. W., of Hatboro.
