Robinson .....Mutueka NZ
Looking for any relatives to Tom Robinson born 1917 that had the Tobacco farm in Mutueka NZ in the 1960's.
I think his mother was Elizabeth Viola Robinson ...and his sister Winnie who married a Harold Baker from Motueka.
My grandmother was a Robinson born NZ 1890's and i need to connect the pieces....I also know there
was a Thomas Robinson, i have a photo of him in a ww1 army uniform b/ around the 1890's...a Hannah Robinson b/1875 Northumberland Scotland.
She arrived in NZ around the late 1880's Had my Nana Lillian Robinson out of wed lock adopted her out then later married George McIntyre lived in Auckland NZ.
Her mother Elizabeth born 1845, father William born 1846 UK.

Hi, I have been researching ASKEW in Riwaka/Motueka. I did see in 'Centennial Celebration 1865-1965' the laying of the foundation stone for the Riwaka Church was by Mr Jimmy Robinson and his 2 sons from Motueka in Oct 1864. There is also a picture of a Mrs W.V Robinson whom taught sunday school classes at the Motueka Presbyterian Parish and Mr W.V Robinson taken around 1965? Hope this helps..Sue H
