'Great Grandfather' Robinson
Children: James
Family Tree: Robinson

The man who lost the chance to name a street after himself, with the turn of a card. Mr. Robinson had an ongoing competitiveness with another local Erinsborough family; the Ramsays. Things came to ahead when he and 'Black' Jack Ramsay got into a card game with the name of a street resting on the result. Needless to say, Ramsay won. But Robinson always viewed that victory with suspicion, and in his diary, even went as far as describing Jack as a “liar and a cheat”.

Mr. Robinson was more successful at building a family than playing cards. His son James had a son known as Jim, who in turn had many children, one of which, Paul, still lives on Ramsay Street.
