This came through on another list I belong to. Amazing this person went to all this trouble. Hope someone can claim him. I have the email address if someone thinks it's theirs,

I am an American genealogist and while on a research trip high in the
mountains of Virginia City, Nevada, I found a grave which I photographed since
the
person was from Sussex. Virginia City was a mining town at a very high
elevation. This was a well known mining area and quite famous. Today it is
still in
existence as a ghost town and attracts thousands of tourists during the summer
months.

If anyone has George Robinson in his family charts I am happy to send a
photograph of the grave for you. When researching if I find a grave with a
location on it I always try to photograph it especially when they emigrated from
another country. I hope someone out there can use this. This is what it says:

It shows the carving of a Masonic Order.

"In memory of
My husband
Geo. Robinson
Died
April 28, 1882
Aged 56 years
A Native Of
Sussex, England"
