John Cornelius ROBINSON
Date of Birth:
c 1872
Date of Death:
12 Feb 1917
John was born around 1872. Where, we have been unable to ascertain but does not look as if it was in NZ. If not we do not know when he arrived.
He was a single man all his life. He started out as a labourer at Feilding, then a millhand in Levin & then a labourer at Marton & Ohakune.
He is recorded on the 1905 unoffiicial census for the Levin township petition as a millhand & it appears he may have been living in a boarding house.
He was a drinker as he got into trouble as was apparently jailed for 3 years for assault whilst drunk.
He died at the age of 44 in Wellington.
