"This story comes from our dear Aunt Helen (Kratzer) Davis. Helen in June 2013 will be 100 years old. Her mother was Mary Jane Robinson. Mary Jane is the sister of Joel Robinson. Aunt Helen some time back wrote some small stories of what she could remember about the Robinson Family and entered her stories in a book that we inherited....
Both boys left home soon after their mother (Mary Tennessee (Phipps) Robinson) passed away in 1898. They had always said that they would leave home, after their mother died. Both boys were teenagers when they left. They did not know where they were going, and if they had known they would not tell anyone. One day a friend of Jewel (Another sister of Joel) told her, that a friend of hers told her that when she was visiting in Arizona, she had met a man by the name of Joel Robinson. Jewel's husband had died, so Jewel said that she was going brother hunting. Jewel left and found Joel in Arizona. Joel then told Jewel that he was married and found his wife in Mexico. They had a daughter. Jewel did not see his wife or daughter while she was in Arizona. Jewel had asked Joel about Daniel, and Joel said he did not know where Dan was, or never heard from him. He just left without telling him where he was going."
