(By her Grandson, Matthew Seitz when he was 9)

I decided to write my biography about my great grandmother, Margaret Louise Robinson. She was born November 9, 1913 in Griffin, Indiana. She lived on a farm and had many farm animals. She had sheep. She said if sheep have two babies, they will ignore one. She fed baby sheep with a bottle.

When she was 15 she moved to Fillmore, California. She lives in Anaheim Hills now. I interviewed her at her apartment near our school. I met a lot of her friends. We could see lightening and hear thunder that day. She was most influenced by her grandmother, because her grandmother spent a lot of time with her and loved her a lot and taught her things. Her hopes and dreams were to be a wife and mother. She was married to my great grandfather, Herbert Pryor Robinson, for 47 years. She has one daughter, Grandma Becky, three grandchildren, my mother, Robyn, my Aunt Erin and my Uncle Andy. She has one great grandchild, Matthew. I think she met her goals.

One of the most interesting things in her life was going to Israel. Her grandfather, Charles Newton Williams, fought in the Civil War when he was 16 years old. He shook hands with President Abraham Lincoln.

My Granny loves cats. She has three cats.

My Granny likes to write poetry. She has some poems that have been published in two books that I saw. This is a poem she wrote for me:

To Matthew:

Little boys are very nice,
They like frogs and bugs and even mice,
But, grandmas love them anyway.
They understand what they do and say,
And they pray that God will make them good,
And always do what little boys should.

Years fly by all too fast.
Our little boy is growing up. Time doesn’t last.
Boys are a blessing, a gift from God up above
For all the family and cute girls to love.
Gob bless you little man, and remember this, too,
Love and be loved, because Jesus loves you.
