From The Lynden Pioneer Press, 27 Nov 1888:
We are called upon this week to perform the sad duty of chronicling the death,
from lingering consumption, of our esteemed neighbor, friend, and
fellow-townsman,
J. B. Robinson
He was born in Elkhart county, Indiana, August 13, 1845, consequently being at
the time of his death 43 years of age. When the war of the Rebellion broke out
he gallantly responded to his country's call for aid in the hour of peril, and
enlisted in the 2d Regt. of Indiana Cavalry early in 1863. In 1864 he was
promoted to corporal, and served gallantly throughout the war, being discharged
on the 22d day of July, 1865, at Edgefield, Tennessee.
