pp. 247-8, ROBERT G. ROBB
Among the highly honored and respected farmers who claim Washington county, Pennsylvania, as their birthplace, one who has carefully noted all the vast changes in Burlington for over forty years, and now is quietly enjoying some of the results of the many hardships he was obliged to undergo in his younger days, is Robert G. Robb, whose life record we are pleased to place before the many readers of this review.
Robert G. Robb is a son of George and Jane (George) Robb, and was born in Washington county, Pennsylvania, Oct. 14, 1832. He received a good, substantial education in the district schools of his native township, after which he entered upon the farm duties that generally fall to the lot of a farmer's son. He was a very industrious boy, and very handy with the saw and hammer; between times with his farm work he would practice using them, and soon became a carpenter of much ability. He worked at both farming and building for many years.
In 1874 he located in Des Moines county, and his earnings of the past enabled him to purchase one hundred and sixty acres of land, which is the farm he now resides on, and was formerly owned by Joseph McElhiney. He later sold forty acres of this place to his son. Besides engaging in general farming, with the best of results, he raises a number of pure Short Horn cattle. He had one animal of this breed at the World's Fair, which took the fourth prize. When Mr. Robb moved onto this farm it was in need of many improvements, and he at once began the erection of several necessary buildings. He has also repaired and remodeled the house, and now his farm, with its substantial improvements, is considered one of the finest in the township.
Oct. 13, 1859, Mr. Robb joined heart and hand with Miss Mary S. McLoughlin, who was a daughter of Samuel and Margaret (May) McLoughlin. This union was blessed with six children, as follows: George M., formerly located in New York, is a minister, now residing in Philadelphia, where he works with much success; Samuel Edmund, a bright young man with many friends, departed this life at the early age of twenty-five years; John J. is a prosperous farmer of Yellow Springs township; Thomas C., also tills the soil to a large extent, in the same township with his brother John; Jennie E., the beloved widow of Robert Edgar, married Robert M. McFarland, and will live on Mr. Robb's home place; Margaret May is employed in one of the large millinery stores in the city of Des Moines. After sharing the joys and sorrows of married life for some seventeen years, Mrs. Robb was called to the home beyond the skies July 30, 1876.
Nov. 8, 1878, Mr. Robb married Miss Susan K. Kilpatrick, a daughter of Daniel and Mary Kilpatrick, and they are the parents of one son, William M., who has taken a theological course in Allegheny City, Pa., in preparation for the ministry, and is now at home. Mrs. Robb was born in Monroe county, Indiana, March 2, 1845, and moved to Yellow Springs township with her parents many years ago. a sketch of John Kilpatrick will be found on another page in this review, which will speak more at length of Mrs. Robb's father.
Mr. and Mrs. Robb are devoted and influential members of the Reform Presbyterian church, where he has been elder for many years; they also belong to the Reform Association. Mr. Robb has led a busy life, his strenuous nature being utterly opposed to indolence and idleness, and through his perseverance and diligence, and his careful management of business affairs, he has won creditable success, being now one of the substantial and valued citizens of Yellow Springs township, where his family is accorded an enviable position in social circles.

p. 558: JOHN JAMES ROBB
John James Robb owns and operates one hundred and seventeen acres of land in Sections 7 and 8, Yellow springs township, and is successfully engaged in the breeding of Shorthorn cattle and Poland China hogs, in which regard he has gained more than a local reputation as a stockdealer.
A native of Pennsylvania, he was born in Washington county, Dec. 6, 1864, his parents being R.G. and Mary (McLaughlin) Robb. When the son, John J., was six years of age, the parents removed from Pennsylvania to Lafayette county, Indiana, where he had the privilege of attending school for three years. They then started westward, establishing their home in Des Moines county, Iowa, and here he completed his education in the district schools and by study through a winter's term in the academy at Morning Sun. He was reared to farm life, and has always followed that occupation, early gaining a knowledge of the best methods of tilling the soil and caring for the stock. Ambitious to acquire a farm of his own, he saved his earnings in earlier years, and in 1888 he purchased one hundred and seventeen acres of land in Sections 7 and 8, Yellow Springs township. ...
Jan. 3, 1889, Mr. Robb was united in marriage to Miss Elizabeth Reed, a daughter of Matthew and Mary (Walkinshaw) Reed, who was born Jan. 24, 1864, in Yellow Springs township. Their marriage has been blessed with one daughter, Edna, whose birth occurred March 2, 1894. The parents are members of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, and are interested in its work and in all progressive measures tending to benefit the county. Mr. Robb, however, concentrates his labors and energies upon his business pursuits, and his persistency of purpose and well-directed efforts have brought to him gratifying success, so that he is now one of the substantial agriculturists of his community.
