I just emptied out a bag that I brought back from Utah and found a couple of things I stuck in there to bring home.This is an original picture that Clara had of Robinson family members. I'm not into genealogy so I really haven't a clue as to who all these people are. I think one person is Vera who was Riley's father's sister. I am going to scan and e-mail to a cousin - Deborah in Las Vegas who has been asking for a copy of it. She knows who everyone is. When I find out, I'll certainly write it on the photo so it will no longer be a mystery. If anyone has an interest in a copy, let me know and I'll e-mail to you as well.
Here's the coolest thing. An old dip pen set. Its all made of glass except for the stoppers which are Bakelite(I think) on the top and has spare nibs. I am amazed that it is in the good condition it is in. I'm going to see if I can find it online and learn more about it as well as the value. I suspect very little so I'll probably just keep it.If there are any Robinson family people reading this, most who attended the reunion purchased a CD of Robinson family history and pictures put together by a distant family member. If you would like a copy, let me know and I will tell you where you can purchase one.

Call Huston Robinson (702) 285-4502
He's the planner of the reunions and I believe he collected the money for the CD. He'll be able to get you one or direct you to the appropriate person.
