Date and place of death

edit

Currently his date of death, and its location are unknown. Given that — according to the collection of all of the official legal documents (digital copies are on Ancestry.com.au) pertaining to the case — nobody knew of his whereabouts, and he made no responses to any public notices demanding his appearance in court, at the time that Edith Robinson Robinson sued for divorce.

The logical conclusion is that he most probably moved to somewhere else in Australia (or, perhap, New Zealand), and lived under an assumed name. This would account for the fact that there seems to be no record of the death of anyone called Archibald Robinson, who had been born at Mitta Mitta, Victoria, on 9 July 1890.

It would seem that the last, forlorn hope might be to ask a member of Parliament to investigate whether there is any Repatriation Department record of him, with service number 141, seeking some sort of medical support, or a Service-related Age or Invalid Pension; or, someone, on his behalf, seeking assistance with his burial.
