The Line of Richard Wombwell Robinson and Emily Lugsden

The lines that follow from the not-so-happy liason between Richard Wombwell Robinson and Emily Lugsden are as follows:

First Generation
1.


Richard Wombwell Robinson m. Emily Lugsden (1853-1921)

2.
İ
Charles Richard Wombwell Robinson (1873-1953). Charles was born in Southgate and died in West Ham. He married Rebecca Alice Wade in 1894, and they had four children. In the 1911 census, he is recorded as an electrician general, living in Shoreditch. Again, thanks to Andrew Parsons, it can be recorded that:

Charles’ main career started before 1894 as a self employed Watch Maker.  By 1911, we see him changing direction into the Electronic / Wireless field. The shop in Holloway road became a family business with all his three sons working with him in various capacities. Much of their work included Radio and Automobile work and resulted in various new technologies being developed.’

Henrietta Annie Wombwell Robinson (1875-1977). She married Edward Walter Ryall (1869-1957) and they had three children. She was also known as Harriett (after her grandmother) and Hattie.

Henry Charles Robinson (1894-1974). Henry was born in Islington and died in Hayward’s Heath. He married Dorothy Enid Raphael (1891-1969). On 1911, he is listed as an ‘improver electrician’. He was living with the family in Shoreditch at the time. He fought in and survived both World Wars. Andrew Parsons recounts that:

After the war in 1946, Henry started his own company - H.C. Robinson (Electrical Contractors) Ltd at 35, Kenway Road, Earls Court - all his three son being partners. Sadly for Henry - he had one ‘major undoing’ - his social life. He would spend hours drinking with his ‘friends’ and revealing many of his new ‘secret’ invention, which undoubtedly many used for their ‘own advantage.

Henry was a Great-grandson of Charles John Robinson and Harriett Wombwell, and second cousin of Hetty Jane Owen.
