Subject: Re: Hayes Robertson Author: Jesse (three cheers for Mr. Bann!) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: Sat, August 10 2019, 21:15:54 In reply to: LampyMeier2007 's message, "Hayes Robertson" on Sat, August 10 2019, 15:22:35 This is so cool! Oddly enough, a while back I was trying to search for black film players (I think Curtis McHenry, principally) who were associated with silent comedy. One name that caught my eye was a "Hayes 'Fat' Robinson" whose name I stumbled on in some California Eagle articles, and I poked around FamilySearch a little without any idea what he looked like or what I was going to do with the info (yeah, I'm strange, haha). I can contribute not much more than R.W. Bann and "Lampy" here, but I can fill in a few minor details... COD: heart disease/pneumonia Real name: Hayes E. Robertson Height: 5'9" (draft card) It perhaps should be noted in the first paragraph of the bio: Some articles and documents spell his surname "Robinson," and give him the nickname "Fat." https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KZVF-6B2 (WWI draft reg. card) https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MH7S-3P8 (1920 Census) https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QKS9-6RPY (CA Death Index) https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QP79-TNLF (death certificate) https://archive.org/stream/la_caleagle_reel6#page/n159/mode/1up/search/%22hayes+robinson%22 (California Eagle, Mar 1924–May 1925) https://archive.org/stream/la_caleagle_reel6#page/n219/mode/1up/search/%22fat+robinson%22 (California Eagle, Mar 1924–May 1925) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
