Dr. E. Duis, The Good Old Times in McLean County, Illinois (The Leader Publishing and Printing House - 1874)
Ormond Robison was born in Tennessee, January 23, 1805. He was married, February 17, 1826, in Overton County, Tennessee. In 1830 he came to Blooming Grove, in what is now McLean County, Illinois. His family suffered on the journey very much for want of water and because of the dust, for the season was very dry. In 1832 they moved to Dry Grove, and in 1835 to White Oak Grove, where they lived until the death of Mr. Robison, which occurred in 1851.
Ormond Robison had ten children, of whom five are now living. They are:
Mrs. Sarilda Beeler, wife of Benjamin Beeler, who lives on the east side of Twin Grove. Her aged mother, Mrs. Robison, resides with her.
Levi Preston Robison lives at New Windsor, Knox County, Illinois.
Mrs. Lousia Williams, wife of Philip Williams, lives on the old homestead at White Oak Grove, in Woodford County.
George Hamilton Robison lives at White Oak Grove in Woodford County.
Mrs. Neety Ann Benson, wife of George H. Benson, lives in Champaign County, Illinois.
