In 1719 George^ Robinson bought 500 acres of land in Oxford, Mass., of Col. William Dudley of Roxbury, moving to his new home in 1723. That year he bought 225 acres more,which lay just across the line in Connecticut. At the first town meeting held in Dudley after its incorporation in 1732, George
Robinson was elected one of the Selectmen, and again in 1740 and 1741. He built the first mill in Dudley. He gave his children farms as they came of age, and seems to have been a thrifty citizen.
