Individual:
From the Greenwich Journal, December 13, 1932:
"The neighbors of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Robinson celebrated the 50th anniversary of the couple at the Robinson home at 12 Bridge Street, Greenwich, NY. Mr. and Mrs. Robinson were hosts to more than 100 neighbors and friends who staged a surprise party in honor of their 50th wedding anniversary. Throughout the evening their home at 12 Bridge Street was visited by a steady stream of well wishers. An evening of entertainment was enjoyed with games and dancing forming the main features. A mock wedding, a revival of the ceremony in 1882, when Mr. and Mrs. Robinson were married in the same village by Rev. J.H. Brown, was staged. Both were 19 years of age at the time.
Mrs. Loa Edie was the bride in last night's mock wedding. Mrs. Nora Alderman was the bridegroom.; Mrs. Frank Baine, maid of honor; Mrs. Charles Toomey, attendant; Mrs. Florence McGrouty, clergyman; Miss Evelyn Perkins, ring bearer. Vocalists during the ceremony and during the evening were Miss Anna White, Mrs. Lester Edmiston and Mrs. Jennie Brant.
Mr. and Mrs. Robinson were the recipients of many gifts. Those arranging the surprise provided their own food for the dinner with the result that a heavy supply of leftovers graced the family larder at the conclusion. There were many presents of varying nature and a purse of gold.
Among the guest present were their son, Charles K. Robinson, of Troy, and his family; their daughter, Mrs. Harry Perkins and family of Greenwich, and friends from Troy, Hoosick Falls, Ballston Spa and Schenectady.
Mr. Robinson is employed as locomotive engineer on the Greenwich and Johnsonville Railroad, which he has served for 42 years. Mrs. Robinson daily engages in the many tasks of a busy household. Both are in excellent health."

Mrs. Charles Robinson
The death of Mrs. Ida May(sic) Kimball Robinson, wife of Charles Robinson, occurred during Sunday night at the home on Bridge street after an illness of about six weeks duration. The funeral service was held at the home this afternoon at 2 o'clock, with the Rev. Charles R. Edgington, pastor of the Methodist church officiating. Burial was in the Greenwich cemetery. Members of Water Lily Rebekah lodge met at the home Tuesday evening for the ritual service.
Though Mrs. Robinson was born in Bennington, Vt., seventy-six years ago last August, she had lived in this village for many years, coming here with her parents when her father, Henry Kimball, was engineer on the Greenwich and Johnsonville railroad, and has since been a well known resident of this village, taking an active part in the work of her church and other organizations as long as her health permitted. Mrs. Robinson was a member of the Water Lily Rebekah lodge, and formerly of the Women's Relief corps. On December 6, last year, Mr. and Mrs. Robinson celebrated their 57th wedding anniversary.
Besides her husband, Mrs. Robinson is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Harry Perkins, and one son, Charles Robinson, jr., both of Greenwich; by thirteen grandchildren and six great-grandchildren, and by two nephews, Harold Kimball of Ballston Lake and Walter Kimball of Rutland, Vt. An only brother, George H. Kimball of Shushan, died the last of December, '39.

Ida Mae Kimball Robinson was descended from multiple lines of Puritans, including Richard and Ursula Scott Kimball of Rattlesden, England, who arrived at Massachusetts Bay colony in 1634. These lines include common ancestors with Heber C. Kimball, 1st apostle and prophet of the Mormon church, Brigham Young, Mormon prophet and leader, and Senator Daniel Webster of Massachusetts.
She is buried in the Greenwich Cemetery with her husband Charles, and their three minor children, near her father, mother, and infant brother. The correct spelling of Ida M. Kimball's middle name is Mae.
