According to the notes of Kimball Everingham, his tombstone reads: "Charles Merchant Died Dec. 24, 1848, In his 27, Year."
His birth date is inaccurately reported on pgs. 20 and 37 of C, M, T, E (1963) as 5 Feb 1822.
The John Merchant Family Bible (1803) gives his age at death as 25 years, 10 months and 12 days (this was mistranscribed in C, M, T, E, (1963) as 25 years, 11 months and 12 days). The death date, 24 Dec 1848, is almost certainly correct since it is found in both the John Merchant Family Bible (1803) and the Enoch Shaw Family Bible (1839) as well as on his gravestone. The month calculates correctly to the birthdate given in the Bible, but the year and day do not. There is room for Charles to have been born in 1823, but the Enoch Shaw Family Bible (1839) says he died in his 27th year (or aged 26), so I suspect the age calculation rather than the birthdate. His age at death shoul d be 26 years, 10 months and 18 days.

1) The Profile of James Robison by John Gessner. This is part of the Profile of Edward Robison (1818 - 1863), in the possession of David Warren Robison, May, 2002.
James Robison, the oldest child of Edward and Arminda was born in May of 1840. In the census returns he is listed as being born in Ohio. Where we are not sure as the family is "missing" in the 1840 census for Ohio.
"Uncle Jim" as he was called in our family worked at the stone mason's trade from the time he was a small boy until he died of "stonecutter's pneumonia." When Edward died it was Jim and John who carried out the construction contracts. This continued and grew into a stone firm known as ROBISON BROTHERS. Jim, John and Frank and hired help worked on the jobs. The work was carried on in Northeastern Ohio. Basement walls, cemetery vaults, bridges, railroad work and homes were among the items built.
The work was far enough from home that returning home was out except on weekends. There is a bridge on State Route 46 north of Cortland that has (1990) a cornerstone reading "ROBISON BROS. 1872". The cemetery vaults at Palmyra and Parkman are good examples of their work.
Jim married Mary Hall. They bought a small farm southeasterly from the Robison Church Cemetery, directly across the road (now State Route 225) from where his parents lived 1848 - 1859. The death records at the Courthouse state that he dies on March 31, 1883 of stone mason's pneumonia. His grave marker states he died on April 25, 1883. Mary Hall Robison died February 16, 1889, aged 39 years and 10 months. They are buried in the Palmyra - West Cemetery.
They had at least five children. Edward F., Guy Waldon, Blanche, Maude and Howard. The entries for each child are transcribed into each individual's notes - David Warren Robison, May, 2002.
