A Suicide

Harrison Robbins is the son of Benjamin and Cynthia (Jones) Robbins and a brother to Edwin Dwight Robbins who lived and farmed near Thawville, Illinois.  Edwin Dwight Robbins is buried in Florida while his wife, Louisa Bishop Robbins, is buried at the Onarga Cemetery. Edwin and Louisa are the parents of Edwin G. S. Robbins, and Edwin G. S. Robbins is the father of Halsey Robbins, who is Grandma Mildred (Robbins) Arnold's father.  So it goes me, Glen, Mildred, Halsey, Edwin G. S., Edwin Dwight, Benjamin.  Seven generations back.
