Commemorative Biographical Record of the County of Essex, J. H. Beers & Co., Toronto, 1905, p. 197-198:
George Foster Robson is a prominent citizen and successful farmer of Mersea township, living at Sturgeon creek. He is a native of the township where his father and grandfather before him were well-known and honored citizens.
     Grandfather Joseph Robson was born on the Scottish border, near Northumberland, England, and there grew up and married Anne Trimel. They had a family of six children, as follows: Thomas, who was a soldier in the British army, and was killed in the Rebellion of 1837-38, while stationed at Sandwich; James, who became the father of George Foster; Mary, who married Joseph Mickle; Margaret, who married Thomas Hairsine of Talbot street; Edward, who was drowned in Robson creek, Mersea township; and Isabella, who married Francis Wilkinson, of Mersea township. The father and mother came to Canada in the early days of its settlement, and located in London, Ontario where Mr. Robson followed the occupation of teacher. Later they moved to Mersea township, and Mr. Robson became one of the first teachers in that part of the country. He also became an extensive landowner and farmer, and spent the rest of his life on his 300 acre farm in Mersea. He died at the age of eighty, and is buried in the family lot on the farm. He was a Presbyterian in religious faith, and in politics a Conservative. His wife, who belonged to the Church of England, died at the age of seventy-five.
