Crescens Robinson
Crescens James Robinson (21 May 1864 – 8 June 1941) played first-class cricket for Somerset in 31 matches from 1885 to 1896.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Cres Robinson )〕 He was born in Gloucester and died at Chelsea in London.
==Family and background==
Robinson was a member of an entrepreneurial family who had interests in paper-making and printing in Bristol and London and in a wide range of goods in Singapore. The family company of E. S. & A. Robinson owned a large printing and paper-bag manufacturing site at Bedminster in Bristol. Crescens Robinson's unusual name was a family name: his uncle Crescens had a firm called "Crescens Robinson & Co" in Islington, London, which acted as an agent for his uncle Philip who was the founder of Robinson & Co in Singapore and later became a lithographic printing company which specialised in fine printing of posters, with London Transport among its customers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Assumptions and Evidence: The Case of Philip Robinson )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Results: Crescens Robinson & Company )〕
The extensive Robinson family had estates at Flax Bourton and Backwell, near Nailsea, south of Bristol, and in 1879 Crescens was part of a team of "Eleven Robinsons" that played a match against the Backwell Cricket Club at the Flax Bourton ground. This event was repeated in various forms until 1964 and included a match against an all Grace team in 1891. The Eleven Robinsons consisted of Crescens and five of his brothers, augmented by five cousins, all descended from Edward Robinson and directly related to Elisha Smith Robinson, Crescens' most prosperous uncle. Apart from Crescens, two others of the Robinson Eleven graduated to first-class cricket: cousin Arthur played three matches for Gloucestershire, while Crescens' brother Theodore also played a few times for Somerset.
