"Their son [Henry Robinson & Sarah Farmer], William F, now resides on section 29. He was born in Anderson Co., Ky., in September, 1828. He was but one year old when his pioneer life began in Tippecanoe county, and but eleven years of age when his parents removed to Kosciusko county, where he grew to manhood. He was joined in marriage in 1851 to Eliza J. Robinson. She was born in Washington Co., Ind. He purchased timber land in Franklin town and cleared a portion of it, remaining there until 1854, when he came to Richland county. He purchased land on section 4 of the town of Eagle, and lived there until 1862, when he came to Dayton and purchased eighty acres of land on section 29, in the portion of the town known as Fox Hollow. He has since that time purchased other land, and his farm now contains 180 acres. He has engaged in raising grain and stock. Mr. and Mrs. Robinson have three children living - James E., Alfred M., and Adello M."

"Henry Robinson, deceased, an early settler of the town of Dayton, was born in Anderson Co., Ky., in September, 1805. He was joined in marriage to Sarah Farmer. In 1829, in company with his brother William and some others, he emigrated to Indiana and settled in Tippecanoe county, near the line of Clinton county, and was one of the pioneers in that section of the country. He remained there about ten years, then removed to Kosciusko county; he was also an early settler there. He then purchased timber land, cleared a farm, and made that his home until the fall of 1854, when he sold out and started for Wisconsin, traveling overland, bringing his family and household goods along. After three weeks travel he arrived at the home of his brother William, at Pleasant Hill, in the town of Eagle, and there spent the winter. In the spring of 1855 he removed to Dayton and entered land on section 28, as before stated, remaining here until 1871, then sold and moved to Boone Co., Neb, where he died two years later. His wife died in 1876. They were the parents of eleven children, six of whom are now living."

"From 1850 to 1856 came still greater acquistions to the prospering colonists, and requiring more room they stepped further into the wilderness parts. Among the families who came to the town about this time were... James H. Robinson...[15 in all]. These make up the principal part of the early pioneers of Eagle, who braved the dangers and hardships incident to the settlement of a wilderness, and carved out of it for themselves and their growing families a home, a comfortable home, which they left as legacies to those who followed them on earth's stage of action." p 211;
