Calling all Robison Decendents

Nearly 100 years ago, on January 1, 1909 Joseph Hancock and Nellie Hinckley Robison first entered Moapa Valley—then called the Muddy. They raised five children to adulthood, and now they have hundreds of descendants throughout the world.

We want to celebrate the 100th anniversary of this event with a grand family reunion of all the descendants of Joseph and Nellie Robison, as well as other extended family members who would like to attend. The reunion will be held January 2 and 3, 2009 in Logandale.

We are asking you to do four things now:

Put this great event on your calendar and plan now to attend.

Send your contact information, i.e.: address, email and phone number, to family@robisonfamilyreunion.org , or to Jack Walsh at 253-335-8113. Also send contact information for other family members.

Forward this on to others. To get the word out to everyone, we need your help.

Consider being part of the Reunion Committee.

This will be a great opportunity to renew family ties, to learn more about our great heritage and for younger generations to perhaps meet cousins they never even knew they had.

Check back at this website regularly for updates and details.We look forward to hearing from you soon and seeing you January 2, 2009.

Your cousins,

Daniel Walsh
Bryant Robison
Lee Robison
Don Murphy
Ethelyn Ryan
James Robison
Jack Walsh
