County Republican & Press (Neillsville, Wis.) 09/02/1915 Robinson, Orlo (12
MAR 1860 - 31 Augl 1915) Orlo Robinson,
whose death was briefly mentioned in last week’s issue, was
born in St. Lawrence Co., N.Y., March 12, 1860. He came to
Wisconsin with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Robinson in 1866. In
1873 they moved to a farm in the town of Weston, Clark County, six
miles north of Neillsville, where deceased lived until he sold this
farm in 1913, and moved to Neillsville. In 1883 he was married to
Miss Anna Redmond, who survives him. He leaves also two daughters,
Mrs. Chris Brick of Montana and Mrs. Robert Dwyer of Neillsville,
also one brother, Earl Robinson of Weston. Orlo Robinson was
a man who was universally liked and respected. He was an
intelligent citizen, and took an active and helpful part in town
and county affairs. He was a good husband and father, a grue
gentleman in all the walks of life. His death seemingly came all
too soon, while he was still far from old age, and it has left a
sad vacancy in the community. The funeral took place at the home on
Friday, Rev. Colman preaching the sermon. Members of the Modern
Woodmen Camp and the Odd Fellow Lodge, of which orders he was a
member, attended in a body and took part in the burial services.
