I am looking for the birthdate and parents of William S Robinson born in Lawrenceville Annapolis, Nova Scotia. He was Hanged in Kentville, Kings, Nova Scotia 09 Dec 1904 for murdering his wife Teresa Balsor. He was roughly 70 yrs. old. His parents names may be John Robinson and Jane (MNU).

The last public hanging in Kings County happened on September 12, 1904, at 1:35 A.M. William S. Robinson was convicted of, and hanged for, the murder of his wife Theresa (Balsor)(McAulay)Robinson, by a jury of twelve men. The trial took place at the Courthouse in Kentville from June 19th to 22nd, 1904.

I would also be interested in knowing if he had any siblings. Thank you so much.
