Harry Robbins was my father's cousin.  My granmother, Annie Eliza Louise Hanks (Nee Robbins) was the brother of Henry William (Harry ) Robbins the father of Harry Robbins, who played drums & Xylophone in the 1920's/30's.  Unfortunately there does not appear to have been any contact between the Hanks and Robbins families.  I was aware of Harry Robbins and following questions from one of my grand-daughters about family history I have been seeking to find out more about him.
 
My searches on the net brought me to your site and I note that you have had contact with his daughter, Pat Beale (see 78rpmdicuss 2005).  I am hoping that you have an e.mail address for her and could forward this e.mail to her so that, if she wishes, she can contact me.
 
My message to Pat Beale is simply that I should be delightd to hear from her so that I can find out more about the Robbins family; after all we tdo have a set of common great-grand parents.
 
Hope that you can help.
 
Regards Tony Hanks
