Biography

Joseph Robinson was born in 1884 in Walmgate, a street in the middle of York where his father, also called Joseph, ran two pubs in succession.

Joseph is the son of Joseph Robinson an innkeeper and his first wife, Jane Maskew.

Child 1891 Malt Shovel York

Joseph's father Joseph is still in Walmgate, York, but in a different pub, the Malt Shovel. Arthur is not with the family and Godfrey is now Geoffrey and a new child Joseph (jr added in a different hand) is 7 though a heavy pencil stroke makes this hard to read. The General Servant domestic Nelly Burnell should not be overlooked: she will become the elder Joseph's second wife. ^[1]
